Tranter Latin America (Mexico) obtains ASME Certification

Wichita Falls, TX, March 26, 2013 The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) recently certified the Tranter
Mexico Operation quality assurance system in accordance with international guidelines. ASME is the leading international
developer of codes and standards associated with the art, science, and practice of mechanical engineering. The Certificate
of Authorization confirms that the Tranter Mexico Operation heat exchangers are built and serviced strictly in accordance
with the provisions of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codes. More specifically, the U stamp allows Tranter to build
ASME heat exchangers and the R stamp allows the Tranter Mexico Operation to repair any ASME code heat exchangers
in their facility.
For ASME certification, Tranter underwent exhaustive preparation and extensive planning to ensure that the guidelines of
the facility were compliant with the ASME code. After significant effort, the certification was granted. We are pleased that
the audit passed without any restrictions. The Tranter Mexico facility has worked extremely hard and committed themselves
to ensure that they are manufacturing and servicing our heat exchangers under the strict ASME code standards. Having
this certification complete is a testament to their dedication and hard work, said John Arnold, Quality Assurance Manager
for the Americas. The certificate is valid for three years with a yearly unannounced review to inspect that the guidelines are
compliant.
The ASME certification is very important to support Tranters global manufacturing initiatives as well to support the new
service center in expanding its position in the growing Latin American market, said Antonio Garza, the Vice President of
Tranter Latin America. Tranter Latin America, located in the city of Quertaro, Mexico, is the only Heat Exchanger
Manufacturer that presses plates in Latin America, and the only Heat Exchange Manufacturer with its own service center in
the country of Mexico.
