                                 Contract Wins

Tanfield Group PLC (the "Company") announces two important strategic contract
wins.

Norquip Limited, the Company's wholly owned airport access subsidiary, has won
its first order for an 'Ambulift', a truck mounted, scissor lift unit that is
used for terminal-to-aircraft passenger transfer at airports.

The deal is worth more than £100,000 and will see Tanfield supply the unit to a
major airline in the Middle East. This is a strategically important contract as
it will provide the Company with a foothold in the Middle Eastern airport
sector, one of the worlds fastest growing markets for airport vehicles,
highlifts and ramp equipment.

Additionally the Company's wholly owned digital imaging subsidiary has signed a
licensing agreement and 2-year supply deal with a Central American OEM, worth
$500,000 (US).
