About RIEFILT
RIEFILT GmbH, headquartered in Lüneburg, is a manufacturer-independent deal originator for industrial water treatment. The company does not manufacture systems itself, but structures financing and procurement models such as BOOT (Build-Own-Operate-Transfer), rental agreements and equipment brokerage for reverse osmosis (RO/SWRO), ultrafiltration and containerized treatment systems. The focus is on water treatment plants for process and ultrapure water, wastewater, landfill leachate as well as emergency and temporary water supply. RIEFILT independently compares systems from at least three manufacturers and selects the appropriate technology for the respective water chemistry; the portfolio ranges from systems with 500 l/h to containerized systems with 100–200 m³/day. Customers come from sectors such as textiles, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, automotive, semiconductors, food processing and municipal water supply. Projects are managed from Lüneburg across the DACH region, the Mediterranean and MENA; through RIEFILT Talent, the placement of water treatment professionals is also offered.
