BROOK PARK, OH — Greenkote PLC, a provider of high-performance anti-corrosion metal coatings headquartered in Brook Park, Ohio, announced that its Chinese licensee has won a major contract to supply 1200 tons of coated hex-bolts for construction of the new Amur Gas Processing Plant (AGPP) in the Amur region of Siberia. When completed, AGPP will be the second largest facility of its type in the world, designed to process 42 billion cubic meters of gas per year. The Greenkote licensee, Shanghai Premier Tension Control Bolts Co. Ltd., is a joint venture of Tension Control Bolts Ltd. (TCB) of the UK, Shanghai High Strength Bolts Plant Ltd. (SHS), and Shanghai Yan Yan Trading (YYT).
“We're very proud of Shanghai Premier for winning this significant contract,” said Mark Gore, Greenkote CEO. “There were six other suppliers competing, and the performance specifications for the coatings were extremely high. Because of the very harsh Siberian environment, the customer required unusually thick coatings as well the need to pass 1000-hour salt spray testing. Shanghai Premier did an excellent job.”
