US equipment and service suppliers are cashing in on China's environmental protection and energy conservation push.
"In the past few years, Spencer has made deals to provide high-efficient blowers and gas boosters to help treat pollution. China's become its second largest buyer after the US," Feng Xiaohui, manager of DDI Industry International Inc (China), said.
One of DDI's main product ranges comes from Spencer Turbine Co, which has specialized in air and gas solutions since 1892.
Spencer makes special blowers and gas boosters including multistage centrifugal blowers, single stage centrifugal blowers and gas boosters.
"Although Spencer products cost about four times the others, many Chinese customers choose us after they've compared the products," Feng said yesterday.
"Spencer helps them reduce energy consumption by about 15 percent and the products are stable and need little maintenance."
The government set a target of cutting major pollutants by 10 percent from 2006 to 2010, and to do this the country needs technological and financial support from abroad.
"I believe in the next few years, Spencer will become a bigger part of China's green drive."
Spencer is trying to break into the country's booming petroleum, petrochemical, metallurgy, iron and steel industries.
"Participation in CIPPE is one of our trial efforts," Feng said. "But our performance depends on US technology exports and transfers into China. The US is not as bold as the EU in this area. Without technological support, it's useless for us to introduce equipment."
Another US company, TD Williamson, which focuses on pipeline solutions, is also trying to get on board the country's environment drive.
TD Williamson has worked with oil and gas behemoth PetroChina for nearly 20 years and will set up its first wholly owned company in Shanghai, Liu Zeyan, general manager of TD Williamson Inc (China), said.
The company provides a full range of pipeline equipment and services and expects to expand quickly in China.
"Energy demands will push China to lay out more pipeline, while security and conservation needs will see the focus shift to monitoring and maintenance," Liu said.
