Metso recently opened a new service center specialized in process valve and field equipment solutions in Gothenburg, Sweden. The investment supports the company’s strategy to grow its service capabilities globally.
The 1,700 square meter facility comprises a valve service center, Metso sales office and training facilities. The center is ideally located in the Gothenburg area close to the pulp & paper and oil & gas customers situated on the west coast of Sweden. It will also play a key role in supporting Södra Cell’s Värö pulp mill expansion project.
With deep valve industry and process knowledge, Metso’s skilled professionals service products using Metso original spare parts and service procedures. For customers, this new service center will ensure the same quality and warranty for the reconditioned products as Metso offers for new products. Services are performed according to Metso quality, safety and environmental procedures, which are ISO 9000 certified.
“Metso is continuously improving its service capability and scope of offering to help our customers ensure outstanding long-term process performance with high reliability and safety. The new service center in the Gothenburg area strengthens Metso’s position to stage, test and service large numbers of valves to meet our customers’ high-volume, fast-turnaround repair and service needs during scheduled plant shutdowns,” says Tom Adolfsson, Sales and Service Director, Sweden, Flow Control, Metso.
