Upcoming Industry Webinar: Smarter Filtration Design for More Efficient Water & Wastewater Facilities
Presented by Samantha Zillmer of Sulzer’s Nordic Water Team
Haynes Equipment Company is pleased to share an upcoming educational webinar featuring one of our valued manufacturer partners, Nordic Water, part of Sulzer.
On June 24, 2026, Samantha Zillmer, Regional Sales Manager for Sulzer’s Nordic Water product portfolio, will present a technical session focused on innovative filtration design strategies that can help utilities reduce project complexity, lower construction costs, and improve long-term operational efficiency.
Exploring Smarter Approaches to Filtration Infrastructure
As water and wastewater facilities continue to face increasing demands for performance, reliability, and cost control, equipment design plays a critical role in overall project success.
During this presentation, Samantha will discuss how modern cloth media filtration technology is helping engineers and facility owners simplify installation requirements while reducing the amount of supporting infrastructure typically required for filtration systems.
The session will examine how integrated pump designs, factory-assembled components, and compact equipment footprints can contribute to:
- Reduced civil and structural construction requirements
- Simplified installation and startup processes
- Improved maintenance accessibility
- More efficient facility layouts
- Lower overall lifecycle costs
- Greater flexibility for both new construction and retrofit applications
Featured Technology: Nordic Water SuperCloth™ Filtration
The webinar will highlight the Nordic Water SuperCloth filtration system, a solution designed to deliver high-performance tertiary filtration while minimizing the space and infrastructure requirements often associated with conventional filtration equipment.
Attendees will gain insight into how integrated equipment design can create opportunities for cost savings during both project development and long-term operation.
