Liquidity Services Inc. Expands Circular Economy Footprint with Second Sale in China

The upcoming auction, managed in collaboration with Aaron Industrial Solutions (AIS), features an impressive lineup of assets, including two MAN Diesel & Turbo SE DK080/250R Industrial Steam Turbines and an unused steam turbine rotor with accessories. This sale builds on the success of the initial auction, which included over 60 Sumitomo cryogenic aluminum brazed fin heat exchangers, and demonstrates the evolving landscape of surplus asset repurposing within the energy sector.

Hugh Yu, Managing Director for the Asia-Pacific region at Liquidity Services, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “We are delighted to deepen our partnership with this esteemed global energy leader through our second sale in China. Our successful initial sale paved the way for this expanded collaboration, underscoring the trust placed in our ability to efficiently manage and dispose of surplus assets while adhering to the highest standards of sustainability and efficiency.”

The role of AIS in facilitating this sale is pivotal, reflecting its extensive expertise in industrial asset disposition. Peder Grimstrup, Managing Director at AIS, emphasized the importance of sustainability in their operations, stating, “We are proud to have earned the trust in China and to have been appointed to dispose of the surplus MAN assets. We have a big responsibility towards society and the global environment, and the closure of this facility will be carried out under the premise of sustainability as one of the main keywords.”

This focus on sustainability aligns with the broader goals of Liquidity Services and AIS to foster a circular economy, where surplus assets are repurposed responsibly to minimize waste and environmental impact.

The sale will be hosted on AllSurplus.com, the premier online marketplace for surplus business assets.
