The acquisition of Cathelco gives Evac the opportunity to further expand its cleantech solution portfolio to its customers with the addition of new systems, while also opening up new business opportunities in terms of ballast water treatment systems. This acquisition provides a tremendous opportunity for Evac and Cathelco to work together to become a leader in the field of ballast water treatment systems.<\/p>\n
It will extend Evac\u2019s offering in three main areas: pipework anti-fouling systems, which prevent the build-up of bio-fouling in pipework, and also suppress corrosion; hull corrosion protection systems, which prevent hull corrosion and therefore reduce vessel fuel consumption; and ballast water treatment systems, which remove organisms and pathogens from ballast water using UV and filtration technologies.<\/p>\n
Cathelco, based in Chesterfield, UK, is specialised on marine growth prevention systems (MGPS), hull corrosion protection systems (ICCP), reverse osmosis (RO) desalinators and ballast water treatment (BWT) systems, and its customers include ship owners, shipyards, fleet managers, rig owners and operators, oil companies, navies, and designers.<\/p>\n
Cathelco\u2019s sales turnover in the 2016\/2017 financial year was 31 MEUR. This translates to a direct increase of about 30% in Evac Group\u2019s turnover, from 105 MEUR to over 136 MEUR.<\/p>\n
