Hamon, a hundred years engineering for nature (PDF 2Mo)

Do better what we’ve been
doing for the last 100 years:
help our clients produce more
cleanly and produce more
Jean Gilbert,
Corporate Vice President, Hamon & Co
“We are continuing to invest in applied
research, and this in partnership with
both our clients as well as with American
and European universities. With our
clients, the questions are more related
to cooling systems and heat exchangers,
while with the universities, we are
concentrating more on problems related
to air pollution control.”
Aart Nobel,
CEO, Hamon Corporation USA
“We’ve also made a technological partnership
with industrial partners like Exxon, in this way
we’re able to ally their specialist knowledge with
the know-how of our civil engineers. Moreover,
we have concentrated on the standardization of
our designs, engineering and purchasing,
all of which has helped us deliver more quickly
to market and with the lowest error rate in
the whole industry.”

Ollie Acheson,
CFO, Hamon Corporation USA
“Belgians, Americans, French, Germans and
all the other members of the Group, now enjoy
a position that we’ve not known for 30 years.
For me, it is clear that this healthy position is
the natural outcome of the pertinence of our
products, of the good strategic decisions taken
in the past, and the efforts made by each and
every member of our teams today.”
Michel Monjoie
Head, Research & Development
“For me, wet cooling has a great future ahead
of it, because it allows us to directly reduce the
CO 2
emissions from the power plant, much
more so that with dry cooling. On top of that
we’re able to make it happen with recycled
water or even water from the sea.”
Aart Nobel,
CEO, Hamon Corporation USA
“In short we have attained a level of stability,
maturity and growing confidence that could not
have been anticipated only a few years ago.”
Francis Lambilliotte,
CEO, Hamon & Cie
“Our clients are investing more and more to
counteract pollution and we’re helping them produce
more, and produce more cleanly. For example, by
improving the productivity of 10 power plants by
10%, we’re able to close one down. Or in other words
we can produce 10% more power without building
a new one. That’s less greenhouse gases for everyone.
I think that Hamon will become the partner of an
increasing number of industrial companies who take
the environmental imperative seriously.”
Philippe Delvaux,
Managing Director, Hamon Research-Cottrell
“As our activity is completely in phase with ecology,
we have an enormous market in perspective. And
as our products are good and we have a boss who is
prepared to take risks…”
