BALLERUP, Denmark, Feb. 6, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- LiqTech International, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIQT),
a clean technology company that manufactures and markets highly
specialized filtration products and systems, today announced it has
expanded its distribution with Barr + Wray, one of the world
leading providers of spas, swimming pools, water feature design,
engineering and contracting, to include the United Kingdom (UK). The expanded agreement
builds on two companies' recent partnership in parts of the
Middle East to grow LiqTech's Aqua
Solution® swimming pool water filtration systems in the
country.
Fei Chen, CEO of LiqTech,
commented, "We are very pleased to expand our relationship with
Barr + Wray, a well-established player in the commercial swimming
pool business, to now include the UK. Our proprietary and
differentiated swimming pool water filtration systems are gaining
strong market traction, and I am confident that the close
collaboration will boost LiqTech's presence and success in the
fast-growing market, where we have already built up a solid
installed base over several years. In just the first weeks after
signing the agreement, we have already received an initial order
for a LiqTech pool filtration system in the UK."
Since the two companies entered into their agreement for the
Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman,
Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE in October 2023, Barr + Wray is building up a strong
pipeline for LiqTech's Aqua Solution® swimming pool water
filtration systems.
As previously stated by Ian
Montgomerie, CEO of Barr + Wray Group, said, "We see huge
potential in the collaboration with LiqTech in the years to come.
LiqTech's pool filtration system is strategically a perfect match
with Barr + Wray cutting edge work in the design and build of the
most prestigious state-of-the-art leisure centers and spas."
Compared to traditional media filtration systems that are widely
used in commercial swimming pools, LiqTech's pool system solution
has demonstrated a convincing value proposition according to our
customers. LiqTech pool system ensures excellent and safe water
quality and contributes to a significant reduction in carbon
footprint with up to an 80% reduction in water spending, 60% lower
energy consumption, and 30% lower chlorine dosing. At the same
time, the system size is only one-third the size compared of a
conventional media filtration system and is therefore perfect for
retrofitting without extensive changes to building constructions
being necessary.
The Aqua Solution® is a LiqTech ceramic filter
solution for liquids with suspended solids. LiqTech's Aqua
Solution® integrates a dead-end structural design with
cutting-edge membrane technology that is specifically designed for
water pre-treatment in reverse osmosis applications, wastewater
treatment, and swimming pool and spa water filtration. The dead-end
design yields more cost-efficient filtration performance compared
to other filtration options. As a comparison, for the same treated
water flow, traditional sand filters have pore sizes three times
larger than LiqTech's SiC membranes. Moreover, LiqTech's Aqua
Solution® reduces the number of membrane elements,
pressure vessels, water consumption for backwash, and energy costs
by providing high flow rates at very low pressure.
