Sven Ameye, CEO Pollet Water Group: "We believe it is important to preserve the existing DNA of each company in our group. By integrating TES into the Pollet Water Group, we are securing the company's DNA and supporting future growth. TES has an excellent reputation in the market and built extensive expertise in water treatment. We are continuing that successful legacy. Moreover, TES complements and strengthens our existing Pollet Water Group companies, active in the DACH region. With Aquina (DE - Maintal), we focus on the distribution of water treatment components and solutions for water treatment companies operating mainly in the residential segment. Watertec (CH - Liebistorf) is our Swiss company dedicated to the sale of water softeners and drinking water systems. Finally, Herco (DE - Freiberg) designs and produces high-quality water treatment solutions and projects for industrial, medical and life science applications. We are proud and excited to welcome TES to the Pollet Water Group!"

TES operates with a team of 18 people and achieves annual sales of about 23 million euros.  Wolfgang Herzel and Michael Link continue to lead the company.

 UVO3 also strengthens its market position in this way. From their role as an independent business unit, the team can fully focus on sales, assembly and maintenance of UV equipment. UVO3 will retain its branding and logo. UVO3's St Ives branch will function as an additional sales office.

For a year, Micheline Verhaeghe - R&D Manager at Pollet Water Group - has been working together with the international artist Haseeb Ahmed to develop an innovative vision around water pollution from pharmaceuticals, a local water issue in Belgium. This residency aimed at exploring pharmaceutical pollution ending up in our water supply chain, leaving their marks on our oceans, rivers and lakes and all its living organisms and the need to increase prevention initiatives.

​The works resulted from this collaboration are presented at the 'Faces of Water' exhibition in Bozar (Brussels) running from 21 October to 4 December 2022.
