Saarbrücken (euro adhoc) - ItN Nanovation AG (ISIN DE000A0JL461) has
signed a cooperation agreement with SJE Rhombus, a market leader for
control solutions in the water and waste water sector in the USA. The
deal will see SJE Rhombus take over exclusive marketing of ItN
Nanovation´s ceramic flat filter membrane (CFM) systems in the USA,
Canada and Mexico. The flat filter membrane systems will be combined
with the proven control solutions of SJE Rhombus that are already
long established on the market. The contract between ItN Nanovation
and its American partner lays down minimum order quantities that will
bring ItN Nanovation sales of just under EUR 1m in the coming year
alone. Growth rates of some 40 per cent per annum are expected for
the next 5 years. Demand for water treatment solutions such as those
offered by CFM systems for use in central and decentralized
small-scale water purification plants is expected to rise further on
the back of the increasing shortage of water in many parts of North
America.

The cooperation marks a further milestone in ItN Nanovation´s
strategy of driving the market introduction and penetration of its
own products with strong, market-leading partners to deliver economic
success.

Dr. Tillmann Lauk, CEO of ItN Nanovation AG, says: "The cooperation
agreement is evidence that SJE Rhombus believes in the technological
superiority of our CFM systems and in the associated marketing
potential. It´s no coincidence that our partner has already declared
a willingness to assume the costs of the Title 22 certification
required in the USA. SJE Rhombus is thus making a six-figure
investment in the commencement of our collaboration."
