LiqTech Secures First Commercial Aquatics Order in Finland
Helsinki hotel project expands the reach of LiqTech’s ceramic membrane filtration technology
BALLERUP, Denmark, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LiqTech International, Inc. (Nasdaq: LIQT) ("LiqTech"), a clean technology company that manufactures and markets highly specialized filtration technologies, today announced its first commercial Aquatics order in Finland for the swimming pool at Original Sokos Hotel Presidentti in Helsinki. Secured through the Company’s Pool4You partnership, this order extends LiqTech’s commercial pool presence into a new market and advances its strategy of expanding adoption of its proprietary silicon carbide membrane technology.
LiqTech’s QlariFlow™ Aquatics platform combines silicon carbide ceramic membranes with a compact, modular system design to address the water quality and operating requirements of commercial pools. The technology is designed to deliver consistent filtration while helping operators reduce water, energy and chemical consumption compared with conventional filtration approaches. Its space-efficient configuration also supports installation in facilities where plant room space is limited, making it suitable for both new pool projects and upgrades to existing facilities.
These capabilities are central to LiqTech’s Aquatics growth strategy. By bringing its membrane technology and filtration systems to more commercial pool applications, the Company aims to meet demand for reliable water treatment and more efficient facility operation. The Helsinki project, which specifies a 2 × 2 membrane configuration plus AutoCIP, will bring LiqTech’s filtration technology to a commercial pool in Finland and serve as an example for other pool operators considering similar upgrades.
“This first order in Finland reflects our progress in bringing LiqTech’s ceramic membrane technology to more commercial pool markets,” said Fei Chen, CEO of LiqTech. “Our value starts with the technology and the system we deliver. We combine precise filtration with a compact design to help pool operators maintain water quality while using resources more efficiently. The Original Sokos Hotel Presidentti project is another step in expanding the reach of these capabilities, with Pool4You providing the local expertise and customer access to support our growth in Finland.”
The order follows the September 1, 2026 expansion of LiqTech’s Pool4You partnership. With more than four decades of pool water treatment experience, Pool4You provides established local relationships and project support that complement LiqTech’s technology. Its work encompasses over 80% of Finnish public swimming pool water treatment systems.
