The range of ICL products also includes liquid chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sodium sulphate, sodium hypochlorite, calcium chloride and carbon dioxide which are supplied to Pakistan and different countries in the GCC region.
The ICL management visited SUPCON Technology Experience Center and Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Laboratory. The guests were interested and raised many questions about digital twins, energy management, Industry 4.0 and instruments.
During the meeting, the two sides discussed the upcoming cooperation of biomass power plants, caustic soda plants, and upper layer solutions, and the opportunities of deepening collaboration between SUPCON and ICL into a new era.
The ICL management showed great interest in SUPCON plastic-lined regulating valves and ball valves which have a wide range of applications in caustic soda plants. The management was impressed by the fact that SUPCON has produced transmitters for more than 20 years, of which the latest CXT series can reach a standard accuracy of 0.05%. The guests also expressed demands for the gas detector and batch control solutions.
Following the meeting, both sides gained a clearer understanding of the direction for future collaboration. Moving forward, SUPCON remains committed to delivering enhanced intelligent manufacturing solutions that are highly efficient, secure, and dependable to global valued customers.
