PITTSBURGH & PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evoqua Water Technologies (NYSE: AQUA) has been named the Water Company
of the Year by Global Water Intelligence (GWI), the leading market
resource for the water industry, as part of the Global Water Awards held
in conjunction with GWI’s Global Water Summit.
GWI’s Global Water Awards, voted on by the readers of GWI, honor
excellence across the international water industry, recognizing leaders
who are moving the industry forward. Evoqua was cited for its
transformation from the former Siemens Water business to “undisputed
leader in the field of water treatment, the shrewd roll-up of water
technology companies, followed by a highly successful initial public
offering in 2017, under the leadership of CEO Ron Keating.”
“We appreciate an organization such as GWI and its readers recognizing
the great work our approximately 4,000 employees do each day to further
our Purpose of Transforming Water and Enriching Life,” said Evoqua’s
Keating. “Our vision to be the world’s first choice for water solutions
is underpinned by our Values of Integrity, Customers and Performance, so
it is gratifying to see the marketplace sees the impact we are making.”
In naming Evoqua Water Company of the Year, GWI said, “By simplifying
the company’s internal structure and re-energizing its workforce to
engage more closely than ever with industrial and municipal end
customers, Evoqua has built a fearsome reputation in the water industry
as the king of systems supply, product sales, and service. It enjoys
top-tier market positions in a range of industry segments, from
electrochlorination right through to biological nutrient removal.
GWI continued: “Evoqua embarked on an ambitious $400 million
acquisitions program which culminated in 2017, improving its earnings
profile and strengthening its flowsheet by allowing it to enter new
adjacencies. With a revitalized culture and a balance sheet to match,
the company is delivering on its promises to its customers globally.”
