$30M
These contracts confirm the leading position of the Company as a key supplier of water treatment systems for the semiconductor industry.
MONTREAL, June 29 /CNW Telbec/ - GLV Inc. (TSX: GLV.A, GLV.B) announced today that its subsidiary, Christ Water Technology (CWT), has recently been awarded two large-scale contracts worth more than $30M by leading semiconductor manufacturers. In executing the first contract, CWT will deliver a full waste water treatment system to a North American manufacturing facility. The second contract relates to the supply of an extension to a previously installed ultrapure water system, including reclaim and distribution loops, to a client based in Asia.
"These two projects confirm CWT's leading position as a key supplier of high-purity water treatment technologies to the global semiconductor industry, said GLV's president and chief operating officer, Richard Verreault. Thanks to its thorough understanding of the semiconductor fabrication process, CWT has developed state-of-the-art and cost-effective systems, responding to the most stringent water quality requirements in the industry. The awarding of these contracts also indicates an increasing level of activity in the semiconductor business, which should have a favourable impact on our order backlog in fiscal year 2011."
