THE RADICAL WATERS GROUP - AN OVERVIEW Radical Waters is the global leader in Electrochemically Activated Water (ECA) technology. With 12 years of scientific and practical experience, the Group has installed its patented technology in 21 countries in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. ECA technology, which produces environmentally friendly "green" detergent and disinfectant products in situ, has proven benefits for the beverage, food and hospitality industries, as well as considerable applications in dentistry and medicine, and is making inroads into further industries. Under the chairmanship of Dion Friedland, the Group has recently restructured to meet growing demand and provide improved service to its worldwide customer base of blue chip international companies. The holding company, Radical Waters International, Ltd, now owns three subsidiary companies: Radical Waters International (UK) LLP, headquartered in London, which administers global distribution relationships in all countries outside of the Rand Monetary Area; Radical Waters (Pty) Ltd which produces the hygiene management generators (devices) in South Africa and provides marketing, sales and technical support to distributors. Radical Waters Intellectual Property (Pty) Ltd maintains and is expanding its considerable patent portfolio. Twenty-three patents have been granted covering meat processing, animal husbandry, agricultural yield enhancement, dentistry, medicine, borehole rehabilitation and microbial resistance management. Significant patents are pending in the general beverage field and dental market, as well as unique applications in the starch and grain industries. National patent filings have been made in all major markets worldwide. Under managing director Carla Fiford, the South African-based Radical Waters (Pty) Ltd sales team, in addition to covering the Rand Monetary Area, continues to service global enquiries and handle sales in countries where distributors have not been appointed, and enquiries from sectors in countries where distributors do not have exclusivity for all market sectors. The Group actively seeks and adds distributors as part of its international growth strategy. To this end, agreements have recently been signed with distributors in South America, Spain and Portugal. Other agreements are in the process of being finalized, and will be announced as they are concluded. The outlook for the Radical Waters Group is extremely positive, with numerous applications for the use of ECA technology thanks to the fact that it is safe for use on food and in all food environments; non-toxic; safe for the treatment of water used in food and beverage plants; free-rinsing (no post-application rinsing is required); produced on site on demand; and is residue and taint free. Radical Waters' ECA technology is also a real time application solution and a quality management tool that continuously monitors optimal dosage levels for compliance with approved safety and efficacy specifications. |
