investor and industry news portal for the water sector, presents perspectives by
water sector specialists Steven Maxwell, Managing Director, TechKNOWLEDGEy
Strategic Group; William Brennan, Portfolio Manager of the Praetor Global Water
Equities Fund, and industry participant Hendrx Corp. Current trends and
opportunities in the water business surround the pressing needs for improved
water infrastructure, filtration, treatment and delivery, in particular as
issues of quality and scarcity worsens worldwide.
“Economic and social demands, and political realities – are driving the overall
expansion and consolidation of the broader water industry. These drivers, in
turn, give rise to various trends and effects which will likely be key features
in the water business for years to come. Water quality and scarcity problems are
clearly the ultimate concern and driver behind the challenges, all of the
regulations, the opportunities and ultimately, the projected growth for the
water business over the coming decades,” explains Maxwell.

Sparking worldwide growth in the water industry continues to be China and
India’s significant economic development, escalating the demand for water
supply, quality, technology and infrastructure across residential, industrial
and commercial segments. According to William Brennan, Portfolio Manager of the
Praetor Global Water Equities Fund, “China has really emerged as a significant
player in the water market over the last two years and has plans to spend
approximately $250 billion over the course of the next 2 to 3 years on their
water infrastructure.”
Hendrx Corp, (OTCBB: HDRX), a water technology company engaged in the research,
development, manufacture, marketing and worldwide distribution of water
generation, filtration, ionization, and purification devices, has targeted their
product portfolio to address many of the needs of developing countries such as
China and India.
According to a Hendrx corporate representative, “China and India’s needs in the
water sector are immense. Their requirement is from the potable, to
agricultural, industrial and waste water treatment. Our long term objective is
to supply solutions in each of those areas. In the short term, we are
concentrating on the potable water, more specifically in the Atmospheric Water
Generation area. Water shortages and water pollution can no longer be viewed
from an isolated point of view. A classic example is the Colorado River where
the water has been diverted to California and elsewhere to the point where water
no longer reaches into Mexico. The “Water Challenge” needs a global solution,
and Hendrx Corp. intends to be a part of that solution.”
The main reason China and India’s needs have escalated is concentration in
population, industry and agriculture. He adds, “This concentration is to the
point where the natural water supply has been overstressed and can no longer
accommodate the growth without drastically impacting the environment. As a
result, global solutions have to be found to minimize the impact on the
environment.”
