The U.S. Department of Commerce has awarded MET- Marsulex Environmental Technologies the U.S. Commercial Service’s Export Achievement Certificate acknowledging MET’s success in developing its international business.
Presented by U.S. Congressman Tim Holden, the certificate recognizes companies that have worked with the U.S. Commercial Service to develop business solutions that break into the export area, or increase export markets and sales.
In presenting the certificate, Congressman Holden stated that
“We live in a global economy and have to be able to compete in a global economy. Selling advanced technologies is one way we can compete, and that is what MET has done so well. The job you do with desulfurization and being able to operate in 22 countries with licensees, and at the same time having engineering and technical jobs in Lebanon County is very, very important.”
MET’s President received the certificate on behalf of the company and commented that as a company, MET is constantly looking for ways to become the cutting edge for the type of services it provides throughout the world. He also stated that
“Combined with our licensees and the work that we have done directly, we are responsible for a worldwide capture of approximately 10 million tons of SO2 per year. This is the equivalent of all the U.S. power plants together in what they emit today. That is a tremendous achievement.”
Marsulex Environmental Technologies is a world leading provider of FGD systems and technology. MET FGD systems service over 85,000 megawatts of power generation in 22 countries.
