EPS Water, based in Alton, Hampshire, is pleased to announce the launch of technology partnerships with Nuove Energie Srl (Italy) and Salsnes Filter AS (Norway) in the field of wastewater filtration.
EPS Water UK has been working with Nuove Energie as a tertiary solids filter supplier for over a decade and the two companies are now joining forces to enhance their joint technical and commercial offering to customers and clients in the UK and Ireland. The arrangement will bring the innovative Ultrascreen® disc filter technology to the forefront of the UK and Irish markets, as well as promoting the Biostrainer® MBR screen and the Conoscreen® industrial filter system.
Joining forces has already proven to be a winning combination for the companies as Nuove Energie’s Managing Director, Gianmaria Massignani explains. “With operations in the USA and worldwide, we have been extending our reach in the UK in recent years and this joint venture is just the latest step in that direction”.
“With 13 years’ experience installing and operating Ultrascreen® at wastewater treatment plants, we can stand by the efficiency, effectiveness and quality as a treatment solution”, says EPS Water UK’s General Manager Shaun Stevens. “Our combined experience, teamwork and understanding of the market has led to a Thames Water framework win, something we hope to replicate in the coming years as we move towards higher demand levels across the sector”.
Meanwhile, EPS renewed its partnership with Salsnes Filter at the recent IFAT Exhibition in Munich, and now exclusively offers Salsnes Filter’s primary belt filter product to the UK and Irish municipal markets. The technology is used as for primary separation, ‘peak lopping’ applications and the treatment of storm overflows.
“The agreement between EPS Group and Salsnes Filter is both logical and very exciting”, according to Salsnes Filter’s CEO, Johan Sellaeg. “We are two companies that share a great commitment to wastewater treatment, and the values and the way we work fit together very well. In EPS we have partnered with a highly competent and dedicated organization with ability to support customers with advanced and innovative solutions.”
“Salsnes Filter has a perfect fit within our extensive product portfolio,” says EPS’s UK Technical Manager, Alan Ford. “Alongside our market-leading offering scraper bridges, it gives us a complete solution toolkit for primary and stormwater treatment applications. This arrangement ensures we can deliver Salsnes Filter products more effectively for our customers and provides the integration, commissioning and aftermarket support services that our customers are demanding.”
