                                AGM STATEMENT

The Chairman, Mike Townsend, at today's AGM of Spirax-Sarco Engineering plc,
which provides knowledge, service and products, including peristaltic pumps,
worldwide for the control and efficient use of steam and other industrial
fluids, said:

'You have all been sent a copy of the annual report and accounts which includes
a detailed statement on the performance for the year ended 31st December 2006.
It also outlines the reasons for our good performance, the intrinsic strengths
of the business and why we are confident about the long term future of the
Group.

As far as 2007 is concerned, I have nothing to add to the 'Prospects' paragraph
included in my statement which was written relatively recently in March.  You
may remember that I said 'We are currently faced with the continuing strength of
sterling and, therefore, a likely adverse effect on the 2007 results,
particularly in comparison with the first half of 2006. However, in most markets
trading conditions remain firm and the year has started well, which, with the
Group's fundamental strengths, should enable us to make further progress in
2007.' '
                                     -Ends-
