Euro Tech Holdings Company Limited Announces Stock Buyback

Hong Kong - November 21, 2008 - Euro Tech Holdings Company Limited (Nasdaq: CLWT) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a program to repurchase up to 300,000 shares of its issued and outstanding stock by December 31, 2009. This gives Euro Tech the ability to purchase the stock in the open market or through negotiated or block transactions from time to time based on market and business conditions over the next 13 months.

“The Board has a high degree of confidence in Euro Tech’s future and believes that this expectation is not reflected in the current stock price which is also much lower than our net asset value on a per share basis,” stated T.C. Leung, Chairman and CEO of Euro Tech. “Purchasing our shares, amid global financial meltdown, allows us to demonstrate our confidence and we believe it is an appropriate investment of Euro Tech’s excess cash. We believe that we will have cash on hand after the repurchase for our day-to-day business operations and planned projects.”

See the “Risk Factor” discussions in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 20-F for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
