Reading: James Cowper Kreston advises on acquisition of water treatment specialists

James Cowper Kreston has advised Pollet Water Group’s (PWG) acquisition of UVO3. The corporate finance team provided lead advisory services and financial due diligence to PWG.

UVO3 is a specialist in ultraviolet (UV) light disinfection and water treatment. The company uses UV disinfectant technology, which leaves no taint, chemicals or residues, to eliminate bacteria, viruses and moulds in water. UVO3 will remain a separate operation for PWG in the UK, working alongside existing PWG companies.

Jacques Pollet, president of PWG, said: “Integrating UVO3 into PWG means we can improve our services and deliver more to our customers. The additional resources that we will invest in UVO3 will allow the company to grow and develop new products and new markets for UV technology.”

Nick Rogers, partner and head of corporate finance at James Cowper Kreston, added: “This investment puts PWG in a strong position for continued growth. We are delighted to have advised PWG during this acquisition and we wish them every success for the future.”
