IGS Connects at OSEA200
(as appeared in the Show Daily Newsletter on November 1, 2002)

11/01/02, Malvern, PA - There were smiles all round at the Innovative Gas Systems (IGS) booth within the US pavilion on Wednesday as they signed on three new Singapore agents.  IGS, a manufacturer of equipment which generates industrial gas, is looking to local companies Oakwell Engineering, Turbo-Mech Asia, and SSB Cryogenic Equipment to further expand its business in the region.

"We are here at OSEA2002 to reach out to Asia and the show has been excellent exposure for us.  We have been able to introduce our products to visitors as well as educated them on our technology.  This is a central point for us to network and meet up with some of our agents and customers as well, "enthused Mr. Joseph Bartlett Jr., Managing Director of IGS (Thailand).

Examples of products by IGS include the Generon® onsite generation system which produces a dependable and economical supply of nitrogen and allows on-site generation of gaseous nitrogen and the Hydroswing® system which is a standalone unit for the recovery of hydrogen from industrial gaseous output. 

"OSEA2002 is one of the best known and well established shows in the Asia Pacific. With Singapore being the gateway to the rest of Asia, this exhibition is a perfect stepping stone for US exhibitors to reach the region," said Mr. Ellis Hutchins, International Marketing Manager, IMEX Management, coordinator for the US Pavilion

Riding on the OSEA platform are American companies such as Controlotron, a leading worldwide manufacturer of high accuracy liquid and gas ultrasonic flow meters, renowned for its technological superiority in non-industry measurement and Offshore Rubber Fenders which supplies the industry with 'Rotafender 120,' a uniquely engineered rotating fender system especially designed for offshore platforms.

Visitors to the US pavilion may also want to stop by at Tek-Rap for more information on its cold applied, co-extruded polyethylene/butyl rubber adhesive coating which protects external pipes from corrosion.  

Mr. Ellis added, "The US pavilion provides small and medium companies maximum exposure to buyers and distributors in Asia Pacific and acts as an entry point for new-to-market exhibitors. Companies in the pavilion can expect increased visibility by being part of the group.  

Other companies benefiting from this exposure include Auspex Systems, Clearwater, Echometer, Flowserve, Gulf Coast Oilfield Products, Hilman Rollers, Kandle Oilfield Products, K-Tek, Magnetrol, Smith Fibercast, Strongwell, Taylor Valve Technology, Tescom Corporation and Visi Image.
