Plaquemine sits across the river from the Ascension corridor and carries one of the largest chemical manufacturing sites in Louisiana, a chlor-alkali and petrochemical complex with its own utilities, rail and river loading. The surrounding parish adds terminals, fabrication shops and the contractor base that keeps the plant running.
Chlor-alkali service is brutal on valves, and Plaquemine produces a steady flow of replaced alloy and lined valves with honest wear. Stores here also carry deep spare holdings for equipment that has been standardised away, which is exactly the obsolete inventory that clogs a crib without ever showing up on a capital list.
Mixed lots, partial assemblies, actuated and bare-stem valves and valves needing repair are all considered. We will review a list rather than demand a perfect inventory, and you do not need to sort or clean anything before sending it.
What turns up here
Surplus stock in Plaquemine
The common thread in Plaquemine is that the material is surplus for administrative reasons rather than technical ones. A unit was re-rated, a line was re-piped, a project closed out, a fleet changed, a store was consolidated. The valve is the part that has to move, not the part that failed.
Collection
Pickup in Plaquemine and across Iberville Parish
We collect from plant gates, contractor yards, service company warehouses and terminal docks across the three states. If the material is spread over several buildings or several sites, that is normal; we consolidate rather than asking you to move it first. You do not need to palletise, band or label anything before we arrive.
