     Trading statement in terms of the listings requirements of Jse Limited     
Based on the unaudited results for the 3-month period July 2006 to         
     September 2006 and taking into account management"s forecast for the 3-    
     month period October 2006 to December 2006, Transpaco expects both headline
     and basic earnings per share for the six-month period ending 31 December   
2006 to be between 40% and 55% higher than those reported for the          
     corresponding period last year.  For continuing operations the increase    
     will be between 20% and 35% after adjusting for discontinued operations in 
     the corresponding period last year.                                        
These forecasts take no account of the proposed acquisition of the         
     Flexibles Bellville business of Nampak Products Limited which is still     
     subject to Competition Commission approval.  If approved the acquisition   
     will take effect on 4 December 2006.                                       
It is expected that the results for the current six months will be         
     announced towards the end of February 2007.
