Simplex-Turmar Becomes

U.S. Rep For Klehma's Hatch

Cover Seal Products

Dusseldorf-based Klehma Rub- ber Engineering has appointed Sim- plex-Turmar, Inc. of New York as its U.S. representative.

Klehma has pioneered and con- tinues to develop its unique process of hatch cover seal repair for vari- ous vessels, including but not lim- ited to bulkers and reefer vessels.
