From Schwelm to the rest of the world

SVT supplies customers primarily in the chemical and petrochemical industry as well as the oil and gas sectors. Its systems are used across all continents with exports accounting for around 80 % of sales. The focus is on the USA, Taiwan, Egypt, Spain, Turkey, Benelux and Australia, as well as China, Singapore and India. Activities in the US market are handled by a sales and service office in Houston/Texas.

The systems are also used in the chemical industry, where a wide range of goods are loaded on to ships, tankers and freight containers. In general, the emerging markets in Asia and their growing industrial sectors are very important markets for SVT. Around 180 loading arms from Schwelm were set up at Formosa Chemicals in Taiwan and China alone.

SVT loading arms are in great demand in Russia and China where they are used to equip liquefied gas stations where gases are transhipped. Liquefied gas is also commonly used as a source of energy in rural areas of Germany.
