Statement issued by the company (Announcement)<\/p>\n

H2<\/sub>O Innovation Inc.<\/strong> (\u201cH2<\/sub>O Innovation\u201d or the \u201cCorporation\u201d) is pleased to announce that its new EkoFiber\u2122 automatic screen filter<\/strong> has received the Technical Evolution Award<\/strong> at EIMA International 2026<\/strong>, one of the world\u2019s leading exhibitions for agricultural and landscaping machinery and technologies.<\/p>\n

EkoFiber is a next-generation automatic screen filter that brings together proven hydraulic technology and an innovative structural concept. Its automatic cleaning cycles allow filtration to continue without interruption, which helps operators maintain stable flow conditions and optimize water use. As a result, this makes EkoFiber particularly well positioned for applications in which operational continuity and dependable pretreatment are critical.<\/p>\n

Compared with equivalent solutions currently available on the market, EkoFiber delivers a 33% increase in both operational flow capacity and filtration surface area. This translates into a reduced footprint and smarter irrigation processes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

EkoFiber\u2019s fiberglass reinforced polyester (FPR) filter housing provides several structural advantages over metal housings, which are the industry standard. The use of FRP makes this system highly resistant to corrosion, chemicals, UV exposure, and temperature variations. FRP also maintains the dimensional stability of the filter and reduces the risk of leaks at connections. Plus, it offers high mechanical strength and rigidity, particularly under external loads, vibrations, and structural stresses.<\/p>\n

H2<\/sub>O Innovation has created a solution that does more than filter water:<\/strong> it gives customers a flexible platform for building more resilient pretreatment systems. EkoFiber can operate as a stand-alone unit or as part of a modular skid configuration. This scalability opens opportunities for projects ranging from smaller, targeted installations to larger multi-unit systems.<\/p>\n

Granted by FederUnacoma, the Technical Evolution award recognizes products that present original improvements compared to products already manufactured or patented. For H2<\/sub>O Innovation, this recognition highlights the market potential of this new pretreatment solution that is designed to help irrigation and water-treatment operators address increasingly demanding requirements in terms of water quality and operational efficiency.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe EkoFiber combines the structural durability and stability of our recognized Piedmont FRP housings with Lama\u2019s proven hydraulic technology,\u201d said Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Dugr\u00e9, President and Chief Executive Officer <\/strong>of H<\/strong>2<\/strong><\/sub>O Innovation<\/strong>. \u201cThis award is a powerful recognition that reinforces our confidence in EkoFiber\u2019s potential as a reliable pretreatment solution for customers who need to protect their downstream equipment and adapt to growing water-treatment and irrigation challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

Available in 3-inch and 4-inch sizes, EkoFiber has demonstrated strong performance in tests performed in the Corporation\u2019s in-house laboratory. But the system is no longer in the Research & Development stage: EkoFiber has already been installed in two facilities, where it is delivering reliable performance in real-world operating conditions.<\/p>\n
