Aquator and EBS announce joint venture

An alliance between the Aquator Group and EPS could forge a strong new force in water and wastewater treatment services in Ireland.

The announcement of the joint venture follows an agreement between the Aquator Group Ltd and Wessex Water, one of the UK’s leading water companies, which will see all Wessex Water Enterprises Ltd activities in Ireland transferring to the Aquator Group Ltd.

Both companies have together successfully operated Dundalk Wastewater Treatment Plant for the past 2 years and will operate Annagh Water Supply Scheme, Co. Cavan for a 20-year period.

The Aquator Group Chief Executive Keith Willett said: "The combined expertise of both organisations will put this joint venture in a strong position, bringing us right to the forefront of the Irish market in wastewater treatment services."
