VERTOM BEREEDERUNG
COMMITTED STERN TUBE SEAL SUPPLIER FOR THE WHOLE FLEET
VERTOM BEREEDERUNG
The unique collaboration between Vertom Bereederung and Lagersmit has been intensified in the last couple of years. Driven by the demand to work with a committed stern tube seal supplier for the whole fleet, the cooperation is extended to a fleet agreement between the two companies for our Supreme® seals.
LONG-TERM COLLABORATION
Vertom Bereederung strives to be a leading European company in all forms of international transport over the water. Sustainable transport is a strong aim in the management for all their vessels. The cooperation between Vertom Bereederung & Lagersmit stretches already for a long time starting around 1996. This long-term collaboration fits well with one of Lagersmit’s core values of being a good friend. With proactive support for spare parts and service, Vertom doesn’t have to worry about their seals. This is exactly how Lagersmit ensures Peace of Mind!
CHALLENGE: COMPLEX RETROFIT OF THE M/V PATRON
Retrofitting the m/v Patron can be seen as an extraordinary project. Lagersmit managed to install the Supreme Ventus® with piping outside the stern tube.
BENEFITS:
No shaft withdrawal needed for Supreme Ventus upgradeVGP compliance (with the use of mineral oils)
Optimised Total Cost of Ownership
5 years warranty on the sealing system
The self-regulating air control unit (ACU) with 24/7 Condition Monitoring made the ship more sustainable and VGP compliant.
