Delivering vital water and wastewater treatment upgrades across Victoria through Coliban Water’s multi-year infrastructure renewal and resilience program.
FILTEC is proud to announce its successful appointment as a delivery partner under Coliban Water’s prestigious Treatment Plant Upgrade Program. This multi-year framework agreement spans the 2024–2028 regulatory pricing period, with options to extend through to 2034, marking a significant milestone in FILTEC’s growth journey and reinforcing its deep commitment to Victoria’s water sector.
The program will see FILTEC engaged in the design, construction, and renewal of both water and wastewater treatment infrastructure across Central and Northern Victoria.
This includes delivering critical upgrades such as UV disinfection systems, chemical dosing plants, pumping systems, aeration technologies, and a wide range of civil and electrical works to meet increasing demand, improve resilience, and maintain regulatory compliance.
“Winning a place on this landmark program is a tremendous endorsement of FILTEC’s capabilities, culture and commitment to innovation,” said Matthew Ewen, Managing Director of the FILTEC Group. “We are honoured to be entrusted by Coliban Water to help deliver these essential infrastructure upgrades that will improve water quality, sustainability, and community outcomes across the region.”
Coliban Water’s forward-thinking strategy, dhelk gatjin dhelk balak (which translates to healthy water, healthy people), aligns strongly with FILTEC’s own values and vision to support zero carbon water solutions, healthy communities, and thriving regional economies. FILTEC looks forward to contributing meaningfully to those goals over the life of the program.
“This appointment cements our position as a trusted partner to Victorian water authorities,” added Matthew Ewen. “It’s also a key building block in our national growth plan. Our team is excited to collaborate with Coliban Water and all stakeholders to ensure the success of every project, from concept through to commissioning.”
FILTEC remains dedicated to achieving excellence in safety, environmental stewardship, quality, and social procurement – delivering not just infrastructure, but long-lasting value for Victorian communities.
