The Italian company Gerotto, among the pioneers of no man entry robots worldwide, has started the process that will lead – by the first half of 2024 – to the UL compliance, valid in North America, and to the international IECEx certification of its robotic systems for cleaning tanks inside refineries and tank terminals.
This step is in line with the strategy begun with the achievement of ATEX certification with the aim of strengthening its presence internationally as a technological reference player and as a partner for major industrial cleaning contractors.
“This project – comments Alessandro Gerotto, CEO of the company – is a key step in our industrial growth plan, which includes a deeper penetration in strategic Oil & Gas markets. Our company’s international vocation leads us to face technological challenges with a focus on operator safety and improving the working conditions of women and men around the world. In fact, the company, with the Gerotto Robotics Business Unit, is a worldwide technological benchmark in routine maintenance operations and an innovative partner in recovery and restoration interventions within plants and industries.”
Daniel Devò, Gerotto’s Export Sales Manager also added :”IECEx certification and UL compliance are a key step in strengthening our positioning in markets where we are already present such as Australasia, North America and Africa. Thus, the range of tank cleaning robots becomes even more versatile and allows us to meet cross-cutting needs of contractors and asset owners and we are confident that it will bring added value to our customers and partners.”
