Ecochlor

About

Ecochlor, founded in 2001, focuses on developing and commercializing ballast water treatment systems (BWTS) to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species. The company aims to provide reliable, cost-effective solutions that comply with global regulations. Ecochlor's journey began with the commercialization of patents for chlorine dioxide treatment, and it installed its first commercial-scale system in 2004. The company designs and manufactures efficient and environmentally friendly BWTS, including filtration and chlorine dioxide-based systems. Their product line features the EcoOne™ solution, which offers both a filterless ClO2 system and a hybrid system that can operate with or without filtration, catering to various shipowner needs. Ecochlor serves the global maritime industry, ensuring its systems meet compliance and reliability standards. Recently, Ecochlor was acquired by ERMA FIRST GROUP, enhancing its position in the ballast water treatment market. The company has also been recognized as one of the fastest-growing manufacturers in the U.S.
