Major health risks have been associated with recreational exposure to fiscally polluted water. Canoeing in certain South African waters is considered to be a high-risk activity with regard to bacterial and viral contamination.

Some major local tourist destinations have prohibited access to lagoons and rivers during the holiday period, as it has been confirmed that impurities flow downstream, resulting in polluted river streams and the non-compliance of the water for recreational purposes.

There is a perfect solution to all the above challenges – the freshwater treatment system, that is packaged in a flexible, customised 40 feet container. This meticulously pre-assembled and designed water treatment system is supported by quality interior parts – giving you a robust and perfect solution to surface water quality issues.
