PST-Scuba Announces Facility Relocation, Improved Product Availability
PST-Scuba, a division of Pressed Steel Tank Company, has announced the company will relocate their Milwaukee, Wisconsin manufacturing facility during the second quarter of 2005. The relocation, plus investment in new equipment, is intended to improve availability of the companys highly demanded E-Series steel diving cylinders.
Global shortages of steel and higher than anticipated market demand caused PST-Scuba to fall short in meeting customer requirements last year. Looking ahead, significant investment in raw material supplies and better production planning will also contribute towards greater product availability for the 2005 diving season and beyond.
Unrelated to PST-Scubas diving cylinder product line, Pressed Steel Tank Company phased out production of all obsolete products over the past year, such as compressed natural gas cylinders. The exit of dated product lines positioned the company for their facility relocation, allowing PST-Scuba to focus on reducing their order backlog. To prepare for their facility relocation, PST-Scuba has already begun pre-building inventories of their E-Series diving tanks.
PST-Scubas E-Series is the first scuba diving cylinder to feature a service pressure of 3442 psi and a yoke/DIN convertible valve. Advanced cylinder design features also include PST-Scubas exclusive hot dip galvanized finish, and superior buoyancy characteristics.
Details of PST-Scubas facility relocation, including change of address information, will be announced shortly.
