HONG KONG's Kerry Logistics,has opened an ISO tank depot in India and a foundry in China by its subsidiary Kerry-ITS to supply engineering parts for tank customers.

Its facility in Kandla, India occupies 11,300 square metres and offers versatile ISO tank cleaning and repair services for tank lessors, operators and end users. The new depot is located eight kilometres from Kandla Port in the state of Gujarat to take advantage of having direct ocean access to overseas markets.

At its new Indian depot, Kerry Logistics plans to introduce the latest Robogrind interior tank shell corrosion treatment technology used in its Singapore operations. The sophisticated sheltered cleaning station installed in the new depot is equipped with a high performance automatic cleaning system and has a capacity to clean up to 40 tanks a day.

"Our investments in advanced ISO tank maintenance facilities in India as well as the manufacture and supply of tank engineering parts in China are the result of sustained growth in demand in these dynamic regions. Both the depot and foundry are ideally located to serve their respective shipping communities," said managing director of Singapore's Kerry-ITS William Loh.

In China, Kerry Logistics' new foundry facility is located in Dongying city, Shangdong province to support its regional ISO tank business with uninterrupted OEM precision engineering, parts manufacturing, distribution and supplies.

The company's depots in Singapore and in Laem Chabang at Thailand are certified as "Approved Cleaning Station and Repair Depots" by the Asia Tank Container Organisation (ATCO). The depot in India has applied for the certification and the audit is due to be completed by the end of the year.
