Centravis Production Ukraine (Nikopol, Dnipropetrovs’k region), a member of Centravis Ltd. holding, has supplied boiler pipes to the Brazilian market for Caldema, a company specializing in the production of industrial equipment.
According to the company’s press release on Tuesday, the total volume of deliveries amounted to 193 tons.
It is specified that the Ukrainian pipes are intended for the production of a steam boiler that will run on cotton seeds. This project is part of the environmental trend of using biomass as an alternative energy source. The boiler is being developed for a Brazilian company that seeks to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels.
It is noted that this is an important step towards sustainable development, as the technology of cottonseed processing allows for the production of clean energy, reducing CO₂ emissions.
“This is a large order for one of the largest companies in the industry and a prominent player in the local market. We hope it will help expand our company’s presence in the South American market, which has been growing rapidly in recent years,” said Artem Atanasov, Sales Director of Centravis.
