The creation of a consolidated UK water sales team will now provide the UK water companies with a single point of access within Siemens and will be lead by Siemen's UK municipal sales manager Andrew Reeks. He said:
"Siemens IA&DT takes the water sector very seriously and believes strongly that the intelligent deployment of integrated industrial technology solutions can help water companies meet some of the many operational, environmental and regulatory challenges they face.
"This newly strengthened offering allows us to work with our water company partners from a truly holistic standpoint, and we are in a strong position to meet their requirements across a wide range of automation and water treatment technology areas."
The new team is intended to enable water companies to access the broad scope of expertise, knowledge and industry-leading products within Siemens. The company’s wide-ranging offering for the water sector includes plant wide process control systems, disinfection systems, membrane filtration solutions, biological wastewater technologies, odour control solutions, water quality analysis and control, network sensors instrumentation and variable speed drives .
