Armtec Infrastructure Inc. : Armtec Infrastructure Launches New Business Unit Structure

Guelph, Ontario, January 2, 2013 - Armtec Infrastructure Inc. ("Armtec" or the "Company") (TSX: ARF; ARF.DB) is pleased to announce the launch of a new business unit structure. Armtec has realigned from its geographically focused regional structure to a product-based business unit structure to better leverage its strengths and prepare for the next phase of performance improvement.

Effective today, Armtec will operate two core business units. The Precast Concrete Solutions unit will focus on concrete products and services ranging from structural components for bridges and parking garages to wall panels, noise barriers, utility vaults and landscaping products. Dennis Lattimore, President, Precast Concrete Solutions, recently joined the Company, bringing over 35 years of industry knowledge and experience. The Drainage Solutions unit will be responsible for Armtec's extensive range of structural steel, corrugated steel and plastic pipe products, Platon and stormwater detention systems. Kevin Young, President, Drainage Solutions, joined Armtec in 2008 and has been instrumental in driving the Turnaround Plan in the Central and Prairie regions. The Company will utilize a general manager structure and will maintain the current Shared Service Centre that streamlines health and safety, human resources, finance and information technology support services.

"Following the success of Armtec's Turnaround Plan, this realignment enables the Company to better develop its position as an industry leader," said Mark Anderson, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In changing market conditions, a product-focused structure will allow us to be more agile and responsive to the needs of our customers and employees. Our new business unit model is designed to improve our focus on our core businesses, increase local accountability for results and strengthen our ability to compete locally, while still offering the full range of products and services across geographic markets. The new structure is the next step forward for Armtec that will provide the foundation for our future success."
