Purple Engineering About Chad
Rechard Serenio, known as Chad, is a Mechanical Engineer and Estimator at Purple Engineering, the company behind Pipe Stand Australia. He is a registered mechanical engineer with 15 years of experience and prepares estimates across Purple's range, including pipe stands and pipe welding equipment.
Before joining Purple, Chad worked as an Application Engineer, a Design and Estimate Engineer and a Technical and Product Manager, supporting a wide range of products and global business clients. His specialist background is in the design and estimating of HVAC and variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, together with product management and facilities management.
Estimating pipe welding equipment properly means working through pipe diameter, load capacity, head type, height range and how the equipment will be used, whether that is a set of stands on site or turning rolls and a positioner in a fabrication shop. Chad's design and estimating background suits that level of detail, so customers receive quotes that are accurate and properly specified.
Chad studied Mechanical Engineering at the Technological University of the Philippines on a DOST-SEI scholarship, graduating in 2009, and passed the Mechanical Engineering Licensure Examination the same year. He joined Purple Engineering in 2023.
