10 February 2000

KRUG's Klippan Subsidiary Continues to Receive Awards For its Children's Automobile Safety Seats
    ATLANTA, Feb. 9 -- KRUG International Corp. (Amex: KRG)
announced that its European subsidiary, Klippan Limited, earned three
additional prestigious awards and three outstanding test ratings in the United
Kingdom.
    Klippan's Prima seat, designed for use by children from birth to 15
months, won the Best in Test award from Babycare and Pregnancy magazine after
competing against seven other well-known brand names in the U.K.
    The Klippan Suprema, designed for use by children from six months to
eleven years, won a Best Buy award by What Car? magazine, receiving the
maximum overall rating for stability, ease of use and value.  What Car? is a
leading automobile magazine in the U.K. and the Best Buy rating clearly
distinguishes Klippan's seat from the competition.  In addition to winning the
"Best Buy" award, three other Klippan seats, the Futura, Dreama and Hi Life
Lux, received excellent ratings from What Car?.
    Klippan's Futura seat, designed for use by children from birth to six
years, won the Best Buy award of Pregnancy and Birth magazine.  This is
Futura's fifth Best Buy award.
    David Wright, managing director of Klippan, said, "We are very proud of
these awards.  They confirm to us that the child safety market continues to
recognize the unique  combination of safety, style and value in Klippan's
children's automobile safety seats."
    Robert M. Thornton, Jr., president and chief executive officer of KRUG
commented, "The Klippan seats have won five awards and Best Buy ratings since
the beginning of the year 2000.  This excellent start for Klippan in the new
millennium is recognition that Klippan offers parents the latest style
combined with the best safety features of any child car seat in Europe."
