In 2008, their new 100,000 ton food processing plant was regarded as a new technical direction for the Tangrenshen Group. Danfoss provided a complete hot-gas defrosting solution for its ammonia refrigeration system that provides the processing plant's cold storage. It was in this project that the first ICF valve stations were installed in China. We are very pleased to report; they are performing today just as well as they did when commissioned in 2009.
