Sulzer expanding service center in Louisiana

Fluid engineering provider Sulzer has begun construction of a 7,200-sq.-ft. expansion to its Baton Rouge Service Center in Louisiana, which provides service to the power generation, petrochemical, steel, and heavy manufacturing sectors. The project will enhance repair, reengineering, and upgrade services for all types of rotating equipment in the U.S. Gulf Coast area.

The service center offers 24/7 in-house and field engineering services. The expansion will add to the 10,500 sq. ft. of floorspace currently available. New machines, upgraded cranes with a 20-ton lifting capacity, and a dedicated painting and blast booth will be installed as part of the project.
