Univar and Koch Membrane Systems sign Italian distribution agreement

Univar will distribute KMS’s range of RO elements which are used in water treatment and water reuse. RO membranes are used to purify brackish water and seawater so that it can be used as drinking water or industrial process water, removing salt and other substances at a molecular level.

“Our strong position in the Italian market combined with KMS’ pioneering products gives us confidence that this agreement is a perfect fit,” said Univar’s Mark Hubbard, Industry Manager EMEA, Water Treatment. “Water treatment is one of our key strategic sectors and we hope that we will work together in other territories as our relationship grows.”

“We are very impressed with Univar in terms of its sales and marketing expertise, logistical capabilities and its commitment to sustainability,” said Ian Elson, Senior Vice President and General Manager Europe, Koch Membrane Systems. “KMS is pleased to be announcing this partnership with Univar and we look forward to the continued development of this relationship in the future.”
