bNovate Technologies SA, a Swiss pioneer in microbiological water monitoring, is partnering with ProDetec, a leading provider of water analysis solutions in Australia and New Zealand. This move marks a key step in bNovate’s international expansion and aligns with rising regional demand for advanced water safety technologies.
“Collaborating with ProDetec represents an exciting opportunity for bNovate Technologies as we expand our footprint in Australia and New Zealand,” said Julian Lowe, Head of Global Sales at bNovate Technologies. “ProDetec’s expertise and commitment to delivering innovative field devices and control equipment make them the ideal partner for introducing our advanced water quality monitoring technologies to this market.”
This partnership comes at a crucial time for Australia and New Zealand, as both nations face increasing industrial water challenges that threaten water quality. Climate change, agricultural runoff, and urbanisation exacerbate water issues, leading to growing concerns about water contamination. Water management efforts are further complicated by extreme weather conditions such as droughts and floods.
Anthony Barakat, Operations Manager at ProDetec, stated, “This collaboration highlights our commitment to providing the highest-quality solutions to our clients. bNovate’s real-time microbial monitoring systems will empower industries and municipalities to address water quality challenges more effectively, ensuring safer water for communities and industries alike.”
At the heart of bNovate’s offering is its flagship product, BactoSense—a fully automated, real-time microbial monitoring solution. Designed to improve efficiency in chlorination and UV disinfection processes, BactoSense enables rapid, accurate data collection without manual lab analysis, aligning with evolving regulatory and environmental requirements.
“This partnership further expands our presence in Asia-Pacific and Oceania where water utilities and industries will benefit from our water monitoring BactoSense solution,” added Serge Gander, CEO of bNovate Technologies. “Climate change is happening now, and we have the tools to be proactive rather than reactive. The best approach to a better future is to stay at the forefront of any challenge, and by facing it together, we can make a bigger impact.”
