VERTECO, the region’s leading supplier of award-winning Water Saving Products, Data Driven Cleaning Technology and Smart Washroom Solutions, has announced it will be offering free water audits to businesses occupying commercial properties throughout 2023.

VERTECO’s water audits are designed to help commercial properties review their current water consumption. Carried out by their skilled technicians, the audits give an insight into how much water is being used and crucially, wasted, across any building. A detailed report then offers advice on how water can be saved and where and highlights which water-saving solutions would offer the best return of investment with maximum environmental impact. The report also gives accurate estimates on water reduction percentages and carbon savings.

Experts agree that the most effective and immediate way to address water shortage is through understanding water use, and then implementing sustainable water management. If business owners and regulators are aware of exactly how infrastructure is using water, they can ensure it is being managed as efficiently as possible. In the UAE’s urban landscape, sophisticated Smart water monitoring and management systems make the process simple, utlising sensors, IoT and AI technology, to easily measure, monitor and control water use.

David King, Managing Director of VERTECO, says, “We are extremely proud to support the Year of Sustainability initiative and the UAE’s long-established sustainability values, which resonate so closely with our own. We have been working in the UAE for 13 years, helping businesses to achieve environmental efficiencies which have not only changed the way they operate, but have had a direct impact on the UAE’s natural resources. By offering free water audits to commercial properties, we hope to drive awareness of how companies can take control of water use and wastage and increase understanding of the changes that need to take place to avoid long-term water scarcity.”

King continued, “We strongly believe that awareness and education are critical when it comes to addressing environmental challenges. We applaud the UAE for dedicating 2023 to highlighting the need for us all to come together in collective efforts and lead the Emirates towards a more sustainable future.”
