A new world-class coating plant has been established by Praxair Surface Technologies, a subsidiary of Praxair, to meet the growing demand for coatings in energy and aviation sectors.
Operations have been started at the facility to supply thermal spray coating products for gate valves and other parts utilized in gas and oil production.
Praxair Surface Technologies has also planned to expand its abilities to serve industrial gas turbine and aviation markets. The company has been doing coating business in Singapore for past two decades and the region has become a committed coating center for the last five years.
The recent expansion will enable the company to better serve its chief customers in Singapore and will also enhance its global position in the coatings production and technology for energy and aviation markets. Praxair’s local operations help customers to decrease transportation costs and enhance components production time.
The Singapore facility allows the company to offer coating services to Southeast Asian manufacturers dealing in equipment parts and assemblies. The coatings protect the components from erosion, wear, corrosion, abrasion and high temperature.
