Metito supplies mobile water treatment plants to guarantee water supplies for industrial and drinkin

The company, which has its headquarters for Africa, Asia and Europe in Sharjah, has installed two containerised units that are capable of providing a total of 1000 cubic metres of water every day.

These units bring to seven the number of Metito plants now operating at Hamriyah City which use reverse osmosis technology for desalinating brackish well water and delivering a guaranteed supply of fresh water.

Metito (Overseas) Limited Managing Director Mr Fady Juez explained: 'As a Sharjah-based company we are delighted to have the opportunity to use our expertise and technology to help SEWA.

'Metito has developed a containerised reverse osmosis water purification system that is specially designed for use at remote locations and worksites such as Hamriyah City where mobility and ease of installation are critical.'

The containerised units are highly automated and operating the systems requires few special skills that make them ideal for remote areas where there are few technical personnel.

The units contain pre and post-treatment systems inside the container and for desalination can handle brackish well waters to ensure a supply of water to the Hamriyah City site.

Mr Juez added: 'Metito's long experience in water treatment in the Middle East means that our containerised systems are designed to operate successfully in the harshest of environments and are fully tested before we instal them on site.'

The seven units now in place provide 3500 cubic metres of water a day for SEWA to serve the demands of users at Hamriyah City.
