Strong presence in Singapore International Water Week Exhibition 2014 In June 2014, Aerzen Asia participated in the International Water Week Exhibition (SIWW) in Singapore, one of the biggest and most extensive water management trade fairs in the world. During the trade fair the partners were trained concerning Aerzen Turbo and Delta Hybrid At the stand single stages ... ... as well as complete packaged units were exhibited. The SIWW trade fair is part of a strategic programme of the Government of Singapore for strengthening the water industry and the development of water technologies. On the one hand the country wants to fulfil its role as South East Asia’s driving force for engineering and developing new technologies for water treatment, but on the other hand it does not have its own natural resources. Now, every two years the trade fair brings together stakeholders from the worldwide water industry to discuss business models, present current water technologies and thus seek to drive continuing innovation. More than 19,000 participants from 104 countries/regions visited this year’s event. They were able to get information at the stands of the 750 companies participating and at 16 special international stands.Aerzen Asia had not participated in the SIWW for several years, but with its large exhibition area, our subsidiary made a powerful and impressive “comeback”, and this had the desired effect on both visitors and competitors. The AERZEN Turbo blowers, Delta Hybrid and Delta Blower, exhibited as complete packaged units or as stages, as real machines or sectional mod- els, explained the Performance3 concept and despite the exhibition only being on for a few days attracted numerous visitors to the stand. These included both existing customers and potential customers, coming from countries such as China, Taiwan, India, Australia, Vietnam and even Iran. As Aerzen Asia colleagues at the exhibition came from the regional sales organisations, most of the discussions could be held in the mother tongues of visitors to the stand.Aerzen Asia established several new cooperations with plant manufacturers, system providers and consulting firms, and was able to sell some turbo blowers.
Advanced concept of workspace utilisation for PGD As a result of the steady growth of AERZEN’s Process Gas Division, their existing office space is bursting at the seams. In addition, the innovative and open working structures of the division need to be reflected in and supported by their office environment. Accordingly, a modern and sustainable working environment has been developed which will facilitate optimum communication between the teams. Project rooms and integrated meeting areas will help to encourage creativity and close cooperation.AERZEN Process Gas Division is ideally equipped for the future with the variable space and utilisation concept in the new building. The attractive working environment will also help to attract suitably qualified personnel in the future.

These regulations were published by the Nuclear Quality Standard Association (NSQA) in 2011, are based on ISO 9001 and are internationally respected.Due to the new requirements of the NSQ-100 regulations, AERZEN awaited the audit with excitement.
