Easy Engineering: What are the main areas of activity of the company?
ERGIL: Traditionally, oil & gas were Äager’s core business, but with the time the product need for various sectors has emerged.
Then after, we are actively working on alternative energy, power, water & waste-water, marine and manufacturing sectors. We offer safety, environment, process products and special components for manufacturing
E.E: What’s the news about new products?
ERGIL: Scrubber is one of the latest products we have been working on and we are collaborating during the development process of the product with our experienced Research & Development Team and Academic Institutions. Scrubbers are used to cleanse the harmful gases with the help of various chemical reactions; it requires both pressure vessel production know-how and chemistry background. We organized a webinar to talk about new product and technologies in this area and we are planning to arrange another one soon.
E.E: What are the ranges of products?
ERGIL: We have wide range of products and we are active in emission control, clean environment and safety areas.
