Ovivo Aquires E2metrix

Ovivo Inc, a global provider of water and wastewater treatment equipment, technologies and systems, has announced the acquisition of E2metrix Inc., a Canadian based technology company, which specializes in innovative and clean electro-technologies that are particularly effective at destroying perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly called the forever chemicals.

Ovivo and E2metrix are piloting a joint solution in Alabama, USA, that has delivered impressive results to date with up to 99% reduction of PFOS and PFOA and over 85% reduction of total detectable PFAS in the water treated. These pilot results were presented by Ovivo and E2metrix at the Water Environment Federation’s Technical Exhibition and Conference (“WEFTEC”) in October 2023.

“Following a very successful partnership with E2metrix, acquiring the remaining shares of the company became a key strategic objective for us in order to accelerate the development and commercialization of an integrated solution to destroy PFAS in water and wastewater, and to help our clients comply with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed PFAS regulatory limits which will protect public health in our drinking water and in our environment for generations,” said Pierre-Marc Sarrazin, Vice President, Corporate Finance, Development and Treasurer of Ovivo.
