As of the third week of January, Techcross sold Ballast Water Management Systems (BWMS) for 81 ships, representing already its largest January amount of order, $23 million, expected to exceed $26 million, which was the largest monthly order in 2021.

In addition, Techcross finished Factory Acceptance Test (FATs ) for 93 ships also set a new monthly record for the company, and 83 ships already have reserved FATs in February with more expected, potentially pushing over the100 mark.

Finally, in terms of the delivery of post-inspected products, Techcross also set new company records. As of the third week of January, shipping products for 72 ships were confirmed. This is the largest figure in the company history, but there is still one week to go until the month end and more sales revenue is expected.
