Environmental technology company Nederman, listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange, will be part of German executive car manufacturer BMW’s expansion in the USA. Together with BMW, Nederman has designed a plant in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, to train US BMW personnel. The BMW order is worth just over SEK 2 million. Part of Nederman’s input will include installing systems for capturing and filtering air pollution such as dust, welding and vehicle exhaust fumes. It will also include installing a high vacuum pump for industrial cleaning and hose reels for providing such things as oil, air and water. The facility will meet the highest of environmental demands in order to give personnel a healthier workplace. The training facility in Woodcliff Lake will open at the end of 2007 and BMW is planning to open three-four similar facilities around the US.
“Environmental technology and a healthier workplace is becoming more important. The BMW contracts are important, prestigious projects that could pave the way for cooperation with other manufacturers in the automotive industry,” says Nederman’s CEO Sven Kristensson.
Nederman has a global agreement with BMW, which has included delivering environmental equipment to BMW’s testing and race car facility in Munich
