Luxembourg, October 1st, 2018.
Pfaudler (“Pfaudler”, www.pfaudler.com) and Tantec (“Tantec Group”, www.tantec-group.com) are pleased to announce they have formed a strategic partnership, effective October 1st, 2018.
Pfaudler invented Glasteel®, the technology of glass-lined steel, in 1884, and is the world’s leading supplier of glass-lined steel equipment.
Tantec sets the standard for quality as the leading company in the design and fabrication of Tantalum process equipment. Tantec competence in using Tantalum for pressure equipment, heat exchangers, plant components and other components is world renowned.
“Tantalum is a very complementary material of construction to Glass-lined steel with similar corrosion resistant properties yet has its own strengths and advantages in given applications. This new offering serves to further improve Pfaudler’s corrosion-resistant solutions that are much more than glass-lined.” says Thomas Kehl, Pfaudler CEO.
As a result of this partnership, Tantec will have access to Pfaudler’s global sales and service organizations in all continents. At the same time, Pfaudler gains access to Tantec’s expertise in supplying Tantalum process equipment which is utilized and supplied in conjunction with Pfaudler equipment and Systems within the chemical, pharmaceutical and process related industries.
“For Tantec GmbH, as a medium-sized company, it makes a lot of sense to market our products worldwide with a competent and strong partner who is represented in almost all regions of the world. Pfaudler fulfills this requirement in an exemplary manner.” says Georg Raab, General Manager of Tantec GmbH.
This partnership was created with this growth opportunity in mind and can now draw upon the skills and resources available, allowing us to offer a full-complement of glass-lined and Tantalum equipment and services, which carries the distinction of the Pfaudler and Tantec brands.
