Pall Corporation
Based on the industries where its competitors operate, Pall could increase its presence in the following industries: military and defense sector, waste water treatment sector, process and drinking water, corporate offices, agriculture, residential construction, the metal industry, pulp and paper, and shipyards.
Pall 's Potential Segments
- Pall provides filtration, separation, and purification solutions.
- The company serves clients from the following industries: aerospace, biotech, chemicals and polymers, food and beverage, industrial manufacturing, laboratory, medical, microelectronics, oil and gas, and power generation.
- Based on one of Pall's investor presentation reports, it has identified the infrastructure and construction sector as one of its long-term high growth market. The company is looking to be a part of China's "one belt, one road" infrastructure spend.
- Based on the presentation, Pall also plans to further expand its presence in the automotive sector by providing its filtration solutions for the electronic parts needed by future cars.
- Pall is already providing some of its products for residential applications. However, this segment is not specifically indicated in the company's list of industries served. Since the company already provides products that can be used for residential applications, this sector could be one where it could further operate.
- Pall is already offering its filtration solutions to the military sector with its aerospace filtration products. Given that it has already a foot inside the door of this sector, the company could further expand its military application and not just to the aerospace segment. Currently, the military or defense sector is not listed yet in the industry client list of the company.
- Some of the company's competitors that are mentioned in the section below have acquired companies that provide services in sectors that were not indicated in the competitors' client industry list. Some of these segments include the waste water treatment sector, process and drinking water, corporate offices, agriculture, residential construction, the metal industry, pulp and paper, and shipyards.
- Given this, Pall could take after its competitors and formalize its entry into these segments.
