Falcon Waterfree Technologies Responds to Increasing Global Demand for Waterfree Urinals

Innovative Enviro-Technology saves billions of gallons of water and reduces maintenance costs. Falcon Waterfree Technologies has partnerships in 22 countries with units installed in Heathrow Airport, the Rose Bowl, and the Taj Mahal. Former Vice President of the United States, Al Gore, is on the company's Advisory Board of Directors.

LOS ANGELES, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2003 --- Global demand for waterfree urinals is taking off, and the worldwide leader, Falcon Waterfree Technologies, a U.S.-based environmental technology firm is responding by expanding its international distribution network. From operations in five countries in 2000, the company now has partnerships with local and multinational corporations in 22 countries. More than 25,000 Falcon Waterfree urinals have already saved more than 3.78 billion liters (1 billion gallons) of water in the last 12 months alone.

The Falcon Waterfree System, which features a urinal and a proprietary cartridge, conserves precious water supplies, improves hygienic conditions, lowers installation and maintenance costs, and reduces the drain on energy and infrastructure resources. By contrast, a traditional flush urinal wastes an estimated 151,000 liters (40,000 gallons) of water per year.

Noted environmentalist and former Vice President of the United States Al Gore, and the business-minded former Mayor of Los Angeles Richard Riordan, are on Falcons Advisory Board of Directors. The company continues to build worldwide strategic alliances with leading partners around the globe, including American Standard and nine of its global subsidiaries, JohnsonDiversey, and Ecolab. And in a further recognition that the future looks bright for Falcon Waterfree urinals, Sloan Valve Company-the worlds leading manufacturer of traditional urinal flush valves-has signed on to market and sell Falcon Waterfree products in the United States and Canada. This makes Falcon Sloan Valves first partner in the waterfree urinal market.

"As a company, weve always sought to offer our clients both environmental and economic benefits," said James Krug, President of Falcon Waterfrees International Division. "Were building on the momentum weve gained to expand virtually every aspect of our operation, and to make Falcon Waterfree Systems the first choice for operators of public facilities who want an eco-sensitive solution that is affordable, reliable, proven and long-lasting."

Falcons products currently help conserve water, eliminate odor and enhance hygienic conditions at many key sites around the world:

"Whether an organization has one Waterfree urinal or several hundred, every gallon really does count," said Krug, who expects global placement to reach 75,000 units by 2004. "With the United Nations predicting a worldwide water crisis in just six years, saving every drop of water helps the cause globally."
