Rotex Inc. has announced the formation of Rotex Sudamerica SRL to begin the manufacture of Rotex(R) screeners in Argentina. Rotex Sudamerica now offers high performance Rotex screeners to customers throughout South America at a lower cost. Local manufacturing saves customers duty and ocean freight charges. When production began earlier this year, the company became one of only a handful of U.S. screener manufacturers based in South America. "The South American process industry is growing," said Nash McCauley, vice president of sales and marketing. "To be more responsive to our South American customers, we need to provide local manufacturing and distribution."
