| Foster Wheeler to expand business in Germany and Finland US engineering firm Foster Wheeler AG announced that its Global Power Group is expanding its power boiler service business in Germany and Finland by establishing two new service centers which will supply spare parts, boiler pressure vessel components (superheaters, economizers, etc.) and boiler modernizations to existing plants in these areas. Foster Wheeler's power boiler service capability in Germany is strengthened by a move to a new service center in Krefeld-Linn, in northwestern Germany. The new center consisting of 2,300 square meters of office and workshop space is currently open for emergency service and will be fully operational by the end of the year. The workshop is equipped with tube bending and welding machinery, cranes and storage facilities as well as equipment for site work. The new center also provides an excellent infrastructure for emergency repair service in Germany and the neighboring countries. In Finland, a new service center will open November 1, 2010 in Kurikka, in the province of Western Finland. The new center brings Foster Wheeler's service operations closer to existing plant operations in the area and thereby improves the speed and flexibility for local customer service. The Kurikka service center is 2,000 square meters of floor space including office premises. The workshop will include tube-bending and welding machines, cranes and other state of the art service production and site equipment. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
