On the 13th, groundbreaking ceremony for the second industrial complex in Wanju Techno Valley
In his congratulatory speech, Duksan Holdings Chairman 'Lee Soo-hoon' said that being able to establish a requalification center following the manufacture of Jumbo tube containers means further strengthening customer service.
DUKSAN AETHERCT Co., Ltd., a specialized manufacturer of Jumbo tube containers, held a groundbreaking ceremony on the 13th to build Korea's largest high-pressure Jumbo tube container requalification center.
DUKSAN AETHERCT (CEO Wi Ho-seon and Lee Soo-hoon) is developing High Pressure Jumbo tube and equipment at a 20,995㎡ site prepared in the 2nd industrial complex of Wanju Techno Valley, located in Bongdong-eup, Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do.
We decided to open a tube trailer requalification center and provide the best requalification service to our customers using the latest re-inspection facilities.
Wee Ho-sun, CEO of DUKSAN AETHERCT, is giving a commemorative speech saying that the company will lead the hydrogen economy in the future by starting construction of the largest requalification facility in Korea.
At the groundbreaking ceremony attended by Cheol Hyeon, CEO of Hynet, Joo-dong Park, CEO of Deogyang Energy, Jong-won Kim, CEO of Woojin Construction, and Sun-yi Son, head of the Corporate Attraction Team 1 of the Jeonbuk-do Corporate Attraction Promotion Team, CEO Wee Ho-sun said in a commemorative speech, “Our company is the first company to build a Type Ⅰ Jumbo tube container. “We will continue to expand to Type Ⅳ products,” he said. “This will contribute to creating employment in the Wanju area and helping Wanju-gun become the hub of Korea’s hydrogen industrial complex.”
Construction of this requalification site, which will begin on a whopping 20,995㎡ site, also boasts the largest construction area in Korea at 8,005㎡ (approximately 2,425 pyeong).
Looking at the building size, the factory building is 6863㎡, the office building is 670㎡, and the annex building is 472㎡.
Above all, this requalification center, which is equipped with the latest automated equipment and can requalify more than 40 tube trailers on average per month, is scheduled to be completed in February of next year, and full-scale operation is expected to take place in March.
Lee Soo-hoon, CEO and Chairman of this company, also said, “Since 2020, as the era of the global hydrogen economy has entered the era, the demand for type Ⅰ hydrogen transportation tube trailers has increased rapidly in Korea, but there has been a severe shortage of places where requalification can be performed.”
He added, “There is a demand for requalification of Jumbo tube containers. He gave a congratulatory address by saying, “By proactively identifying this, we will be able to respond stably to the large amount of tube trailer requalification demand that will arrive starting next year.”
In addition, we decided to acquire global requalification certifications such as KGS, DOT, and CGA for all products and their accessories, including general high-pressure gas including hydrogen, tube trailers for semiconductor special gas, and Y-ton cylinders.
In addition, we decided to provide one-stop service by introducing the latest automation equipment, from container requalification to skid reprocessing (recoating) equipment,
and to apply an eco-friendly automatic powder coating system to preemptively respond to global environmental regulations.
The newly launched Wanju requalification site is easily accessible to customers distributed across the country, so it can be delivered to customers in the shortest possible time, and the resulting transportation cost savings are expected to be significant.
After acquiring Korea's only Type I Jumbo tube trailer manufacturing company in 2020, the company has achieved rapid growth every year based on continuous human and material investment.
In particular, in 2022, Jeonbuk-based S Advanced Materials, which had promising technology for Type IV cylinder manufacturing, was acquired and merged, and in December of last year, it was incorporated into the current Duksan Group and under the new name of Duksan Aether CT, it is a global company covering Type I to Type IV, both in name and reality.
We are maintaining our reputation as the No. 1 comprehensive tube manufacturer.
Guests are smiling brightly at the groundbreaking ceremony for DUKSAN AETHERCT's Jumbo Tube trailer requalification center.
