The industrialend-user segment is also emerging as a significant source of retrofits, as plantowners have been investing in capacity expansions, new expansions, andrefurbishing aging power generation plants to improve productivity. Industrieshad invested substantially in brown field projects and maintenance and capacityreplacement in 2007, providing relief to gasket manufacturers. Although the economic slump is likely to defer a few industrial projects thatwere to be taken up in 2009 and 2010, the already initiated ones will go a longway in shoring up the gaskets market.
