Press Release Body: Molton Brown, the London based manufacturers and retailers of
luxury beauty products, has selected the ATMS' Stock Track Plus (STP) warehouse
management system to help control its operation in Elsenham. The company became part
of the KAO group in 2005 and were looking for a system that had the flexibility to
cope with both the short- and long-term requirements associated with expectations of
major production growth and increased throughput of stock.

Key issues for Molton Brown are full traceability and control to ensure the
continuous flow of raw materials and work-in-progress stock in a fast moving
production environment. STP incorporates Kanban line-side replenishment to guarantee
availability of materials at all times. Batch recording, stock rotation and quality
control were also essential ingredients for a company that prides itself on
producing top-end beauty products for a demanding consumer market. At the same time,
ensuring the smooth running of their manufacturing operation in a highly competitive
market means stock levels needed to be both accurate and timely. Despatch of
finished goods to their third party distribution operation can also be handled by
STP.

The system is due to go live early in 2008. The system is required to interface to
Molton Brown's existing ERP system, EFACS, providing the whole company visibility of
all stock.

ATMS plc is UK based and owned, and is globally represented with offices in Dubai,
China, Singapore and Belgium.
