Aggreko Strengthens Relationship with Clean Harbors
Houston, TX (June 2010) – Aggreko, the
global leader in rental power, temperature control, and oil-free
compressed air, has entered an agreement to be the preferred
supplier of services to Clean Harbors Environmental Services, Inc.
The agreement, which also includes Clean Harbors Canada, will
remain in effect for three years. It calls for Aggreko to provide
equipment and services at Clean Harbor’s on-site facilities as well
as in remote locations on projects dealing with hazardous waste
spills or contamination.
Clean Harbors is the leading provider of
environmental, energy, and industrial services and the largest
hazardous waste disposal company in North America. The company
provides a range of hazardous and non-hazardous waste recycling,
treatment and disposal services, as well as laboratory chemical
packaging.
Aggreko and Clean Harbors began working
together on a project-by-project basis in 2007, but this is their
first multi-year agreement. The two companies recently cooperated
on the two-month repair of Atlanta’s R. M. Clayton Water
Reclamation Center, after the city’s flooding in September 2009.
They have also collaborated on projects in Texas, Indiana, Alabama,
Wyoming and West Virginia.
Tim Heath, Southeast Area Sales Manager, Aggreko, said: “Through
years of experience, the teams at Aggreko and Clean Harbors have
developed a strong working relationship. Aggreko’s national
presence, industry-leading level of service and quick response
matches Clean Harbors’ exacting requirements when called upon for
hazardous waste issues. We look forward to continuing the
partnership.”

£950m (USD $1.6bn or Euros €1.1bn). Aggreko plc is listed on the

Aggreko provides power and temperature control solutions to
customers who need them either very quickly, or for a short or
indeterminate length of time. Examples would be the supply of power
to an industrial site which needs to service its permanent power
supply, supplying a whole city in times of power shortage, or
providing a major sporting event with power and cooling systems. We
serve our customers either through 120 service centres, which we
call the Local Business, or globally through our International
Power Projects business.
In the Local business, which accounts for about 60% of our
revenues, we hire our equipment to customers, who then operate it
for themselves, although we retain responsibility for servicing and
maintaining it. In the
International Power Projects business, which accounts for about
40% of revenues, we operate as a power producer. We install and
operate power plants and we charge our customers both for providing
the generating capacity, and for the electricity we produce. We
design and manufacture equipment specifically for these
requirements in our factory in Dumbarton, Scotland.
Recent customers include the
Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, the Vancouver 2010 Olympic
Winter Games and the power utilities in over 50 countries
including the UK, France, Angola, Kenya,
Indonesia, Bangladesh, Venezuela, Chile, Brazil and the USA.
