- Osmoflo Water Management and CERAFILTEC Germany GmbH are excited to announce the expansion of their partnership into an exclusive agreement for Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific region.
Burton, South Australia and Saarbrücken, Germany – This agreement capitalizes on CERAFILTEC’s expertise in ceramic membrane technology and Osmoflo’s established reputation and regional connections. It allows Osmoflo to incorporate CERAFILTEC’s advanced ceramic products into its water treatment systems throughout the region, providing dependable filtration solutions for end-users and integrators in water, wastewater, and desalination projects, including new installations, replacements, and retrofits.
The collaboration aims to enhance ceramic membranes for Membrane BioReactors (MBRs) and drinking water facilities, as well as tertiary water treatment for reuse applications. The use of ceramic membranes in MBRs is increasing due to their exceptional reliability, durability, and efficiency, especially in challenging industrial and reuse settings.
Osmoflo will feature CERAFILTEC’s technology at Ozwater 2025. Kay Gunther Gabriel, founder of CERAFILTEC, will join Osmoflo representatives at Booth #E05, where both companies will demonstrate a ceramic membrane unit and showcase CERAFILTEC’s cutting-edge solutions. Ozwater, Australia’s leading water exhibition and conference, will be held from May 20-22 at the Adelaide Convention Centre.
Scott Chalmers, Osmoflo’s General Manager of Strategic Growth, stated, “We are eager to integrate CERAFILTEC’s advanced ceramic membranes into our Cerflo product line, providing our clients with options to decarbonize water treatment infrastructure and achieve their sustainability objectives. These innovative membranes set a new standard and are essential for upgrading drinking water plants, desalination facilities, PFW, and industrial water treatment solutions.”
Torsten Wintergerste, CEO of CERAFILTEC, who previously served as President of Sulzer Chemtech, remarked, “We are excited to collaborate closely with Osmoflo to enhance customer value in a market that prioritizes sustainable and reliable solutions. Ceramic membranes are known for their robustness and reliability, establishing a new industry benchmark. Their advanced technology, featuring excellent chemical resistance, offers significant operational flexibility. With high tolerance to TSS, oil, and temperature, they provide treatment solutions for challenging feedwaters, while their longevity ensures a superior total cost of ownership for facility owners and operators.”
