Neptune-Benson buys ETS; appoints local representative

USA-based commercial aquatic filtration manufacturer Neptune-Benson has acquired the business of Engineered Treatment Systems (ETS), a leader in UV Technology for aquatic, industrial and municipal applications.

The ETS acquisition follows Neptune-Benson’s recent purchase of Lawson Aquatics, furthering progress towards the company’s strategic growth objectives.

“ETS makes a perfect addition to our growing organisation,” says Barry Gertz, Neptune-Benson CEO. “Their reputation within the world of aquatics is unsurpassed and the experience they bring in the industrial and municipal arenas opens up even more growth opportunities for our filtration systems.

“The combined capabilities of our organisations will further increase our ability to deliver quality products and services to our global customer base.”

Meanwhile, Neptune-Benson has appointed Brad Weir as the Australian representative for their award-winning Defender regenerative media filters. Weir is well known to the Australian industry from his 25 years in a variety of service and manufacturing roles within the aquatics industry including 16 years as joint owner and director of Hurlcon, as well as serving as President of SPASA NSW.
