The company’s Eupora mill has won the Fabricators and Manufacturers Association/CNA Insurance Safety Award of Honor, in recognition of its perfect safety records and zero recordable injuries for the reporting period. The Eupora mill, manufacturer of HydraBrite ® and DOM mechanical tubing, continues to celebrate 849 days of no lost time or recordable injuries. Gerald Shankel, president and CEO of FMA, stated, “Plymouth Tube Company has demonstrated its commitment to recognis- ing employees’ safe work habits, stimulating interest in accident prevention, and promoting safety in the workplace.” In 2009 the Eupora mill received the Tube & Pipe Journal’s TPJ Industry Award, which further reflected its success in operations, the marketplace and community involvement. Plymouth Tube Co – USA info@plymouth.com • www.plymouth.com Welspun Gujarat Stahl Rohren becomes Welspun Corp Ltd Welspun Gujarat Stahl Rohren Ltd, the flagship company of Welspun Group, has unveiled its new global corporate identity: Welspun Corp Ltd. Since its inception, Welspun has been constantly evolving and responding to the dynamics of the market, from keeping up with the latest technology to servicing the world’s largest oil & gas and retail companies. In the last three months, following internal research, brainstorming and consultations, the company decided that the words Gujarat and Stahl Rohren (‘Steel Pipe’ in German) are no longer relevant in today’s context, and that the name is not contemporary and does not represent the company’s international reach. The company’s businesses include backward integration of steel plates and coils; oil and gas exploration; and a foray into the infrastructure and energy business. Welspun Corp Ltd has supplied pipes for prestigious projects, including pipeline projects in the Gulf of Mexico, USA and other critical projects across the globe. Welspun’s plate, coil and pipe plants are located in Dahej and Anjar in Gujarat, India, and Little Rock in Arkansas, USA. The company has also set up a spiral pipe mill in Mandya, Karnataka, India.
