Hydro International has entered into a strategic business partnership with Russian water engineering company Ecoline Ltd to supply its stormwater management and treatment products in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
Hydro International has already shipped the first €200 000 order to pilot its Stormcell cellular block stormwater storage system on the Zhigulevskaya Valley high-technology business park in the Russian city of Togliatti, which showcases innovative new technologies. This is the first installation of Hydro’s no-power, low maintenance Stormcell storage system in Eastern Europe.
“Hydro has set out ambitious plans for international growth and we are seeking out the best water engineering partners to work with around the world. With its rapidly-growing construction sector and developing economy, Russia has the potential to be one of our most significant business territories in future,” said Clive Evans, Hydro International's international business director. Ecoline has been appointed distributor for all Hydro International’s Stormwater products including the Hydro-Brake Optimum, Stormcell stormwater storage and Downstream Defender advanced hydrodynamic separator.
