While AXH started by primarily manufacturing air-cooled heat exchangers for the natural gas compression industry , today it serves a broad customer base across the upstream , midstream , and downstream markets . Most recently , AXH has gained a very favorable reputation within the LNG , carbon capture and other renewable energy markets . AXH has also recently begun supporting the rapidly growing data center market and believes the future is very bright for its products . Jim comments that “ any time a fluid or gas needs to be cooled during compression
We believe this manufacturing flexibility allows us to support a broader customer base in a unique way or other process application an air-cooled heat exchanger will likely be required .” He shares that air-coolers are increasingly favorable when there isn ’ t an abundance of water so as water scarcity becomes more prevalent in many regions , air-coolers are going to be increasingly considered as a great solution .
Relative to its operations , one of the things that makes AXH unique across its industry is that it does very little out-sourcing of its key components or processes . Jim explains : “ It is our belief that starting with raw plate and steel allows us to offer the shortest lead times and highest quality in the industry while controlling costs .” He further elaborates that “ another thing that makes us unique , besides the sheer scale of our operations and the quantity of air-cooled heat exchangers produced , is the fact that we produce almost every industry standard model on a weekly basis . We believe this manufacturing flexibility allows us to support a broader customer base in a unique way .” One of the results of
