DeepVerge PLC revealed its environmental division, Modern Water, was picked to supply 27 fully integrated Microtox solutions to monitor water toxicity and pollution in the Qatar region ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The £1.4mln order is the largest single order in Modern’s 38-year history and is a direct result of a strategic move away from equipment-only sales to supplying fully integrated regional monitoring solutions, DeepVerge said in a statement.
Microtox CTM is a site-based continuous toxicity monitor giving real-time feedback on the state of water health from the source.
It includes software that can detect more than 2,700 dangerous pathogens and is a regulatory-approved early warning system.
This is additional to the £3mln of orders in the second quarter of 2022 for China and South Asia.
"Modern Water Microtox has been the gold standard for testing water toxicity for thirty-eight years,” Gerard Brandon, Deepverge chief executive, commented.
