Senko Targets Middle East... "Expanding Overseas Market Share Through Export Growth"

Senco, a specialized company in electrochemical gas sensors, announced on the 15th that it has achieved its highest overseas sales performance in the first quarter of this year. Preliminary figures show that sales reached 5 billion KRW, a 55% increase compared to the same period last year.

Overseas sales in this quarter increased across various regions including the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and South America. Since entering the main Middle Eastern markets such as ADNOC (Abu Dhabi National Oil Company), the largest state-owned oil company in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), sales have steadily grown. The successful Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) strategy has led to an increase in export volumes.

Senco supplies gas safety devices, essential safety equipment for all plant sites, not only under its own brand but also to global brands through ODM. The end-users of these products are plant sites.

Recently, demand for gas sensors in the Middle East region is rapidly increasing due to the direct impact of the 'New Middle East Boom.' Large corporations have already secured orders worth 10 trillion KRW. According to IBK Investment & Securities, the order volume in the oil and chemical sectors in the Middle East and Africa (MENA) region is expected to increase by 483% and 151%, reaching $67.1 billion (92 trillion KRW) and $53.3 billion (73 trillion KRW), respectively, this year.

Ha Seung-cheol, CEO of Senco, stated, “We are currently supplying gas safety devices to various plant sites in the Middle East through global brands, and export volumes have significantly increased since the first quarter of this year. Senco is continuously expanding its market share in the global market and is expected to grow its performance through gradual increases in export volumes benefiting from the Middle East boom.”

He added, “The recently soaring exchange rates are also advantageous for Senco,” emphasizing, “This rise in exchange rates is expected to have a positive impact not only on global competitiveness but also on performance.”
