Alfa Laval wins power order in Russia worth SEK 50 million

Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling - has received an order for plate heat exchangers from a company in the
growing Russian power industry. The order value is about SEK 50 million.
Delivery is scheduled for 2009.

“Some 50 percent of Alfa Laval's order intake during the first half of 2008
derives from the fast growing regions of Eastern Europe, Asia and Latin
America,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “Russia
is definitely one of the engines behind this development. We continue to expand
our presence in the country to meet the demand from the energy, environment and
food markets. 

Did you know that Alfa Laval opened its first office in Russia already in 1903?
Today the company has 15 sales offices in Russia of which five are located east
of the Ural Mountains. During the last years Alfa Laval has had double digit,
profitable growth in Russia and annual sales is about SEK 1 billion.
