Presentation Lagazel

Lagazel has developed a range of solar lamps manufactured in Burkina Faso. The aim of the company is to create jobs locally and to illuminate remote rural areas with quality and environmentally friendly lamps. We have recently added the LK1500 and LK3000 lamps to our product line. The LK1500 is only used for lighting, while the LK3000 can also charge mobile phones. The lighting intensity of the lamps can be changed and they are supplied with solar panels.
More information about the products and this innovative project can be found here.

EU project REvivED is making progress

Electrodialysis can be added as a pre-desalination step to the existing reverse osmosis system. This improves the system performance: from the same amount of sea water more drinking water will be produced. The first system is currently under construction and will be tested in Somaliland from May. Further information can be found in the latest REvivED press release.

Review: Travel & Camping Essen from 21.02 to 25.02.2018

This trade fair in the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia (capital Düsseldorf) attracted 1,000 exhibitors from all over the world with almost 95,000 visitors (5,000 more than in 2017). Motorhome and caravan holidays are still on the rise, and this sector has increased by 18% over last year.

Review: Austria Boatshow in Tulln from 01.03 to 04.03.2018

The Austria Boatshow is a small but very nice nautical fair in Austria, just outside Vienna. About 42,000 visitors for 380 exhibitors from 20 countries, we were present with our partner, Ramminwerft from the city of Barth. The water sports sector is also very active right now. Despite Arctic temperatures, a large part of the public was interested in our booth. A very successful show, we are looking forward to participate again in 2019 (from 07.03 to 10.03.2019)

Active power multifunction battery

The new Active Power Battery supports you in all your projects. The advantage of this new gel battery is its high cycle resistance. The IntAct Active-Power GEL manages 500 cycles. The battery is completely sealed. In normal use, there is no gas formation. Since no additional ventilation is required, the batteries can be installed anywhere. They are ideal as a service battery and for cyclic applications. In addition, they can be recharged very quickly. The battery is also extremely vibration resistant, completely maintenance-free and can be stored for up to 9 months.
