Valmet signs a cooperation agreement for boiler services with Agon Pacific

According to a statement, the cooperation started in August and enables Valmet to serve its customers faster with cost-efficient solutions and shorter delivery times.

We have been looking for a reliable partner in Southeast Asia for a long time and have met with many prospects. Finally, we felt that Agon Pacific is the right choice for us. They are a devoted, hard-working team, they have passed all of our audits, and they have a certified workshop in good condition, said Mika Pappi, Director, Services, Manufacturing and Solution Development, Valmet.

Established in 2011, Thailand-headed Agon Pacific has emerged as a leading independent boiler service provider in Southeast Asia with subsidiaries in the Philippines and Vietnam.

As an independent service company, it is very important for Agon Pacific to have world-class partners. Valmet has comprehensive process and technology know-how, and Agon Pacific has long experience of manufacturing new and replacement pressure parts and spare parts for customers around the world while providing site services for maintenance and modifications in Southeast Asia. With this cooperation, we will be able to offer customers a wider range of solutions, said Tommi Ijäs, CEO, Agon Pacific.

Agon Pacific provides a large range of boiler replacement parts and services, from engineering/design and fabrication at its own ASME-certified workshop to various types of site service.

This agreement will be a win-win-win for all. Both Valmet and Agon Pacific will learn and benefit from this cooperation. Agon Pacific has grown to become a highly regarded supplier in the Southeast Asian market, but most importantly, our customers will get faster high-quality service, said Jouko Kylänpää, Director, Rebuilds and Conversions, Pulp and Energy Business line, Valmet.
