Customer Success Has Us Wondering…

We are currently working with a long-standing customer on the development of a very compelling case study regarding the many good things that have occurred during their 9 year history of utilizing EnduroSolv® solid water treatment products.

Their success from using EnduroSolv® solids to treat their cooling towers and boilers have been so impressive and their team so enthused, that one has to ask: Why isn’t everyone using this more sustainable, safer form of water treatment for their cooling towers, boilers and closed loop systems.

If you are not familiar with EnduroSolv® water treatment products, perhaps you should take this opportunity to learn more about this advancement in water treatment. You could become a hero at your organization for saving space in the mechanical room, saving on shipping charges (a case of EnduroSolv® product weighs only 44 lbs compared to a drum of hazardous liquid chemical several hundred pounds) and many other benefits.

You can learn more at the EnduroSolv® site as well as request a distributor to provide you with a “site survey”. The summer cooling season will actually be here before you know it. Now’s the time to check it out.

EnduroSolv®… The space saver!

Space is a valuable commodity… at home, at work… just about everywhere. Just do a quick Google search on space saving ideas and hundreds of thousands of websites appear listing all the latest and greatest ideas to maximize and save space – in the kitchen, in the closet, in the car, under the bathroom sink – the list goes on and on.

But what about in your mechanical room?

In the heart of your building, is there a way to maximize this valuable space while maintaining its functionality? One good way to start is with EnduroSolv® solid water treatment products. See the graphic below… in the same footprint that one 55-gallon drum occupies; you could store approximately 12 cases (48 bottles) of EnduroSolv®. Since one case of EnduroSolv® contains about the same amount of water treatment as one 55-gallon drum, you would be able to store 12 times the amount of water treatment in the same space. That’s quite a space saving!!
Along with space savings, adopting EnduroSolv® into your water treatment program offers many additional benefits including reduced transportation costs, reduced spill risks, reduced carbon footprint, and possible qualification for LEED points.

Innovation Can’t Be Planned, It Can’t Be Predicted; It Has To Be Allowed To Emerge

As I reflected on ways to grow awareness of EnduroSolv Solid Water Treatment Technology for 2012 and beyond, I stumbled upon the above quote. How true it is. We at APTech Group, as the manufacturers of this sustainable & safer technology, can only show our distributor-partners the path toward the advantages of developing Solid Water Treatment technology within their customer database.

No matter how hard we try, there is still a certain amount of “emerging” that needs to take place. This will only be developed through a continual educational process of how our superior products and technology can be used to satisfy individual companies’ sustainability and safety requirements. We can only facilitate this change through being accessible to the needs of our distributors.

To address those needs, we are implementing a “Reach the Rep” program in 2012 which will accelerate that emergence among those who are currently unaware of the benefits of EnduroSolv. This understanding will allow all to prosper and see its innovative power.

Parcel Shipping

As we count down the days towards Christmas I'm sure plenty of people have noticed all of the UPS and FedEx trucks out delivering all of the online purchases people have made. It sure makes for an easy way to send or receive all of the gifts that have been purchased during the holiday season. With solid water treatment products, such as EnduroSOLV, it is just as easy to send or receive the products you need to keep your cooling tower or boiler up and running as optimally as possible.

If you are interested check out www.ups.com or www.fedex.com and see how affordable it can be to ship a 50 pound package with ground service from either company. Then as a comparison look at either of the LTL branches of those customers and see what it costs to ship a 500 pound drum.

A quick comparison like this will show that reducing the shipping and handling cost is one of the many advantages of using EnduroSOLV solid water treatment products. So, the next time you see a FedEx or UPS truck don't just assume it is filled with cell phones, sweaters, video games and laptops ... the products making the HVAC system at your office as efficient as possible might also be on board.

New Technologies… Changing the Way We Live

According to a recent article on the EMarketing web site, U.S. adults now spend more time on mobile devices than reading magazines and newspapers. “Print” accounts for just 6.8% of the time U.S. adults spend with media, while mobile usage accounts for 10.1% of time spent. Now it is true that people do many more things on their mobile devices than simply read media content. However doing the Jumble or crossword puzzle or clipping coupons is still time spent with print media.

At any rate, the trend is clear. New mobile technologies are changing the way we consume content.

The same trend is happening in the commercial water treatment space. After years and years of utilizing caustic and dangerous liquid chemicals to treat the water in cooling towers and boilers, a relatively new process is beginning to take hold. Many facility managers are transitioning to safe, solid water treatment chemicals in their mechanical rooms. These solid chemicals which have the consistency of a hard beeswax and are dissolved back into solution on site using dissolving boards. They work just as effectively as their liquid cousins are available in a growing number of forms, including one gallon bottles, discs and sticks.

Solids are finding their way into the water treatment regimens of a wide variety of organizations who value the reduced shipping expenses, safety and cleanliness of their applications, such as schools and universities, hospitals, government facilities and office buildings. And like the mobile versus print comparison, the transition to solid water treatment has taken some time to occur and still accounts for less than 10% of total water treatment chemical usage. We have been making EnduroSolv® solid chemistry since 2002, but growing acceptance of this new technology has been most active in just the past several years, consistent 20+% growth each of the past three years.
