Alfa Laval wins another power order, this time in China

Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling - has won an order for plate heat exchangers to the fast growing power
industry in China. To meet the country's rapidly growing energy demand the
Chinese government envisages to increase its power generating capacity. The
order value is about SEK 50 million. Delivery is scheduled for 2009. 

“Energy efficiency and energy production are two global trends that drive our
business,” says Lars Renström, CEO and President of the Alfa Laval Group. “This
is another order that confirms the positive trend within our customer segment
Energy and Environment.”
Did you know that Alfa Laval's first office in China was established in 1984 and
that the company's products had already been sold on the Chinese market since
the 1950's? In 2007 the order intake in Asia increased by about 30 percent and
in China by more than that.
