When the deal closes, Salsnes Filter will be a standalone organization and no longer an affiliate of Trojan Technologies.

Trojan Technologies says the transaction will provide Salsnes-Filter with the opportunity to reinvest further in its solids separation filter technology to better serve the demands of the water treatment industry.

"With today’s announcement, we believe Salsnes will be advantaged as a standalone company with greater opportunities to pursue their eco-efficient solids separation solutions," said Tom Siller, president of Trojan Technologies.

“After 11 years of working together, we've created customer partnerships that have helped solve the challenging problems that customers face in the water treatment industry,” added Siller. “Under the leadership of Johan Sellaeg, the associates at Salsnes will be able to continue their impact on providing eco-efficient solutions across the globe”.

“I am very excited to lead our dedicated group of professionals to chart our own destiny,” said Johan Sellaeg, who will be the managing director of Salsnes following the closing of the transaction. “With this team committed to growing our business and building deeper relationships with the customers who could benefit from our solids separation filter technology, we look forward to pursuing a successful future.”

Salsnes Filter will remain at its current production facility in Salsnes, Norway.

Headquartered in Canada, Trojan Technologies’ product brands include TrojanUV, Aria Filtra (formerly Pall Water), Aquafine and VIQUA. Trojan Technologies is an operating company of Veralto Corp.
