Worldwide industrial services and engineered products company Harsco Corporation (NYSE:HSC) announced today new awards from India’s Tata Group that further extend Harsco’s ongoing industrial scaffolding support of facility maintenance at Tata Steel for an additional five years, and add new scaffolding services with Tata Power and Tata Mines. The awards represent combined revenues in excess of $8 million over their terms.
