Alfa Laval appointed preferred supplier of ballast water treatment systems by MSC, a world-leading container shipping company

Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling – has been appointed the preferred supplier of ballast water treatment
systems by the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC). The agreement is expected
to generate orders worth approximately SEK 230 million until July 2016. Some SEK
125 million worth of orders are anticipated to be booked this year.
Under the agreement the Alfa Laval PureBallast systems, developed in cooperation
with Wallenius Water, will be retrofitted on MSC’s container vessels.

“This is an exciting opportunity to further strengthen our relationship with a
leading company in the marine industry,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO
of the Alfa Laval Group. “It is also a clear sign that the retrofit market is
starting to open up.”

The “International Convention for the Control and Management of Ship’s Ballast
Water & Sediments” will enter into force one year after being ratified by 30
states, representing 35 percent of the world’s tonnage. Today 44 states have
ratified, representing 32.86 percent of the world’s tonnage.
