For Immediate Release

Cleantech Solutions Receives Patents for its Airflow Dyeing Machine

WUXI, Jiangsu, China, June 13, 2013 - Cleantech Solutions International, Inc. (“Cleantech Solutions” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: CLNT), a manufacturer of metal components and assemblies primarily used in the wind power, solar and other clean technology industries, today announced that the Company recently received five new patent certificates (Patent Nos. ZL 2012 2 0752919. 2, ZL 2012 2 0752924. 3, ZL 2012 2 0752922. 4, ZL 2012 2 0752921. X and ZL 2012 2 0752917. 3) for devices and parts of its airflow dyeing machine.

The new patents cover the dyeing liquid mixing device, dyeing liquid atomizing device, horizontal manipulated devices, mechanical seal and atomizer of its airflow dyeing machine.  The patents relate to devices and parts that allow for lower water and energy usage, improved dyeing effects, extend the service life of the machine and provide easier cleaning of atomized dyeing equipment.  The Company applied for such patents on December 25, 2012.  The patents were issued by the State Intellectual Property Office of the People’s Republic of China (“SIPO”) and were granted to the Company’s variable interest entity (VIE), Wuxi Huayang Dyeing Machinery Co., Ltd., on June 5, 2013. The patents provide the Company with the exclusive use of these designs in dyeing equipment for a period of ten years.

“We are pleased to have been awarded these patents, which we believe will protect the proprietary devices and parts of our air-flow dyeing machine,” said Mr. Jianhua Wu, Chairman and CEO of Cleantech Solutions.  “We expect our dyeing machine segment to continue to perform well in 2013, as more customers are purchasing new equipment that meets the Chinese government’s stricter environmental standards which our products are designed to meet.  We are currently expanding production capacity and look forward to marketing our new after-treatment compacting equipment in the coming months.”
