Abu Sazzad :
Linde Bangladesh Limited is going to build an Air Separation Unit (ASU) at Rupganj with a view to producing liquefied gases for the industrial sector. The Linde Group’s Gases Division in this regard will implement the project by 2017. The company will invest Tk 1.2 billion for implementing the project.
Moloy Banerjee, Country Cluster Head of Linde Gases’ South Asian business said this at a press conference at a city hotel on Thursday.
The ACU will produce approximately 100 tons per day of liquefied gases, which is the largest liquid producing in Bangladesh, said Moloy Banerjee.
Linde’s new ASU will provide liquefied gases supply and related solutions to Bangladesh’s growing healthcare, food and beverage, fabrication, pharmaceutical, shipbuilding and ship recycling industries.
The Rupganj plant will more than double Linde Bangladesh’s current production capacity, strengthening Linde’s position as the leading gases player in Bangladesh. A state-of-the-art cylinder-filling site at Rupganj will also be built to provide a range of cylinder products to customers across all market segments, he said.
“We are excited to be part of the Bangladesh growth story, just as we always have through the decades. Bangladesh is an important part of our overall South Asian business and we see a strong potential in the market. This investment is an investment in the future, and it will create further opportunities for our gases offerings in Bangladesh and the South Asian region,” said Banerjee.
Addressing the press conference, Erphan Shihabul Matin, Managing Director of Linde Bangladesh Limited said that the project is an important milestone for us. With the new ASU and cylinder filling facility in Rupganj, we are committed to provide our customers high-quality gases solutions and reliable delivery that contribute value to their processes and business goals.
A good number of Senior Officials of Linde Bangladesh Limited took part the press conference. Concito PR was the media organizer of the press conference.
