VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SHARC International Systems Inc. (CSE:SHRC) (FSE:IWIA) (OTCQB:INTWF) ("SHARC" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that Environmental Technology Solutions Pty Ltd. (“ETS”) has received its first purchase order for one PIRANHA™ wastewater heat recovery system.
On October 26, 2017, the Company announced a strategic Licensing Agreement (“Agreement”) with ETS of Australia, for the commercialization of its PIRANHA™ and SHARC™ wastewater heat recovery systems in Australia and New Zealand. The Licensing Agreement gives SHARC a platform to launch its products throughout Australasia and to strengthen its first mover advantage in all parts of the world.
Pursuant to the Agreement, SHARC received this initial purchase order from ETS. The order is intended to supply one of Australia’s largest hotel operators, Meriton Property Services Pty Ltd (“Meriton Suites”), with one PIRANHA wastewater heat recovery system that will provide immediate and long-term economic and environmental savings.
About Meriton Suites
