Garlock receives prestigious award

Garlock, a leading manufacturer of high-performance fluid sealing and pipeline protection products, has received the inaugural Bluetech Award for Excellence in Clean Air Technology, from the Clean Air Alliance of China (CAAC).

Garlock won the award in recognition of its advances in emissions control technologies and innovation. The CAAC works in coordination with Chinese lawmakers and government representatives to combat rising pollution levels and improve air quality for countries in Asia and beyond.

The CAAC review concluded that Garlock had a advanced breakthrough potential in the clean air technology industry, when compared to other industrial organisations.

"Garlock has always maintained a prioritised commitment to designing innovative solutions that not only meet the sealing needs of our customers, but also meet stringent emissions regulations that lead to a significant reduction in carbon footprint," said Stan Chen, Vice President of Garlock China. "Being recognised by the CAAC shows that our hard work has paid off, and we wish to use Garlock's engineering expertise to help China fight its war against air pollution."

Garlock was one of only five organisations that received the award, which was presented to company representatives at the Bluetech International Clean Air Technology Forum in Beijing, China, on 12 December 2015.

Additionally, Stan Chen and Principal Applications Engineer, Jim Drago, gave a presentation on Garlock's low emission control technology and were part of an expert panel focused on discussing VOC emission control.
