Contract Win
Tricorn Group plc (AIM: TCN.L), the AIM listed tube manipulation specialist, is pleased to announce that Maxpower Automotive UK , part of the Group's Transportation Division, has signed a 5 year Long Term Agreement ("LTA") with a major British construction equipment manufacturer.

David Leakey, Sales Director of Tricorn, commented.

On the back of this we can now build upon the high pressure, hydraulic tube capabilities that were first established at our USA operation."
