TRANSTECH INDUSTRIES, INC. REPORTS RESULTS
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2008

PISCATAWAY, N.J., August 14, 2008 - Robert V. Silva, President and Chief Executive Officer of Transtech Industries, Inc. (OTC BULLETIN BOARD:TRTI) announced the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008. The Company's subsidiaries perform environmental services and generate electricity utilizing methane gas as fuel.

Revenues for the electricity generation segment for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 were $213,000 and $372,000, respectively, versus $78,000 and $211,000 reported for the those periods in 2007. The increase in revenue was due to higher fees received per kWh and less downtime for repairs. Gross revenues of the environmental services segment for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 were $218,000 and $437,000, respectively, versus $264,000 and $536,000 reported for the those periods last year. The environmental services performed in the periods were conducted on sites owned or leased by members of the consolidated group and therefore eliminated in the calculation of net revenues.

The cost of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 were $712,000 and $1,417,000, respectively, versus $625,000 and $1,203,000 reported for the those periods in 2007. The net increase in costs was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and general operating expenses. The increase in professional fees reported for the periods in 2008 was due in large part to the Company's ongoing challenge of attempts by two municipalities to encumber the Company's real property located in Edison Township, N.J. and Deptford Township, N.J. The Company has filed suits to prevent such actions.

Other income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 was $138,000 and $259,000, respectively, versus $136,000 and $250,000 reported for the those periods in 2007.

Income tax benefit for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 was $31,000 and $175,000, respectively, versus $146,000 and $256,000 reported for the those periods in 2007.

Net loss for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 was $330,000, or $.11 per share, and $610,000, or $.20 per share, respectively.
Net loss reported for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 was $265,000, or $.09 per share, and $486,000, or $.16 per share, respectively.

The Company and certain subsidiaries previously participated in the waste recovery and waste management industries. The Company continues to incur administrative and legal expenses on matters related to its past participation in those industries. In addition, the Company may incur significant remediation and post-closure costs related to sites of past operations.

As previously disclosed, the Company has challenged an arbitrator's award of $3.5 million of insurance proceeds, held in escrow since 2002, to SCA Services, Inc. The arbitrator's ruling was affirmed by a District Court and in December, 2005 the Company filed an appeal of the Court's decision. The Court of Appeals affirmed the lower Court's decision March 24, 2008, and the Company's subsequent petition for a rehearing was denied by the Court on June 24, 2008. The Company will not continue to challenge the Court's decision. The amount held in escrow is not reflected on the Company's financial statements; therefore the Court's decision will not adversely impact the Company's financial statements.

Presented below are the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2008 and comparative consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
