Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group, a part of the Nikkiso Co. Ltd (Japan) and operating under Cryogenic Industries Inc. (USA), has announced an expansion of its sales, service and engineering capabilities for the African market.
Located in Waterfall, KZN, South Africa, the facility was established to provide a stronger footprint in Africa and support South Africa’s engineering hub and economic centre. Local engineers and field service support will bring specific knowledge of the region and local markets, allowing highly customised solutions.
In addition to offering technical sales for all the Group’s products, an air separation unit commissioning team has been added, which includes customer support. The additional engineering support will provide process and design optimisation and innovative solutions for the region. The facility will also provide LNG equipment, to support the large natural gas expansion off Mozambique, and potential development of virtual pipelines for LNG fuel to mitigate the electricity crisis.
“This expansion positions us to be able to respond rapidly to the growing energy needs of Africa, and to provide greater service and support to our customers with our local presence,” said Peter Wagner, CEO of Cryogenic Industries and President of the Group.
Bruce van Dongen will serve as Managing Director.
