FILTEC and Practical Filtration Solutions: Making Water Safer – Together

Filtec Limited (FILTEC) is pleased to announce the acquisition of Practical Filtration Solutions (PFS)- a Melbourne based water treatment design, installation, and servicing specialist of a variety of water treatment systems.

FILTEC, a New Zealand based design, construction, service and water treatment optimisation company has been operating in Victoria for four years and formed a partnership with PFS in 2018 via its subsidiary Filtec International Pty. Limited.

The two companies have delivered a number of key projects in the industrial and municipal water treatment sectors leveraging Filtec’s design and fabrication capability and PFS’ local presence and experience.

Founded in 2002, Practical Filtration Solutions has significant experience in water filtration, membranes, desalination and process separation. Combining the best technology sourced from around the world with the best local service and support, Filtec and PFS both have established reputations for turning leading global technologies into bespoke solutions.

Filtec and PFS combined will have over 80 people in New Zealand and Australia with a turnover of NZ$40m in 2019. Practical Filtration Solutions will cease trading from 1st April 2019 and operate as Filtec International Pty Limited.

With a growing recognition of water purity and public safety and the obligation to care for what we return into our environment, industrial and municipal customers in both New Zealand and Australia are relying more on water treatment, re-use and conservation specialists like Filtec.

Together, Filtec international Pty and Practical Filtration Solutions team will continue to grow leveraging strong synergies, experience and partnerships in both countries to make water safer for Australia and New Zealand.
