Sweden/Colombia: Swedish engineering firm SKF has signed a three-year deal with Cementos Argos to provide engineering products and services for its operations in Colombia. SKF will provide everything from bearings, housings and seals to training and application engineering, to support Argos' operations in 10 plants throughout the country. Argos has expanded the scope of the agreement to include seals and more bearing products than SKF had supplied previously.
"SKF has an extensive partnership to support Argos in maximising the utilisation and reliability of its assets, thereby achieving its business objectives," said Vartan Vartanian, President, SKF Industrial Market, Regional Sales and Service. The deal expands SKF's existing contract for maintenance services, mechanical services, reliability engineering services and condition monitoring solutions for conveyors, gearboxes and mills at four of Cementos Argos' plants in Colombia.
