LiqTech International, Inc. and Franman entered into a partnership agreement for Franman to market LiqTech's marine scrubber water treatment solutions within Greece, the ship owning market in the world. Established in 1991, Franman provides a wide range of equipment, parts, products and services to the shipping industry. The company has in-depth knowledge, and well-established relationships, within Greek and International shipping.

From the beginning, the company followed the model of a one-stop-shop philosophy. This has fueled its drive to expand its partnerships and hence its offerings to ship owners. During the past 33 years, Franman has equipped more than 4,500 new ship builds.

The company connects more than 700 shipping companies with more than 180 suppliers of equipment and services. LiqTech has developed a compact and efficient marine scrubber water treatment system for both closed-loop and hybrid scrubbers that outperforms discharge limits regulated by the IMO Marpol VI. LiqTech's solutions remove unburned fuel oil, soot particles, ash, and heavy metals from marine scrubber wastewater and take an active role in reducing world pollution.

Since LiqTech's first marine installations in 2017, the Company has successfully installed retrofit and new-build marine scrubber water treatment systems on more than 170 large commercial ships for many of the world's global ship owners. Furthermore, ship owners have gained tremendous fuel savings leveraging LiqTech's water treatment units, providing for enhanced ROI.
