Highlights
- Sprintex secures strategic deposit to enhance compressor development
- Dutch subsidy to support over 10,000 farms fuels market potential
- Trial with Van Drie Group could unlock major commercial scale-up
Sprintex (ASX:SIX) has taken a major step forward in expanding its European presence by securing a €143,250 (A$256,077) deposit from its strategic partner Mest Water. The deposit aligns with the Netherlands’ newly announced national subsidy scheme aimed at advancing manure treatment technologies across more than 10,000 small- and mid-sized farms.
This development comes at a critical time as Europe strengthens its regulatory framework to reduce agricultural emissions. The Dutch subsidy, set to launch in Autumn 2025, directly supports the adoption of Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems, with Sprintex’s compressors positioned as a core component of these systems. This move not only enhances Sprintex’s market visibility but also opens doors to scalable adoption in a region focused on sustainability and innovation.
Under the revised agreement, Sprintex and Mest Water will co-develop a high-efficiency compressor tailored for mobile ZLD units. The total order value has been upgraded to €705,000 (A$1.26 million), reflecting enhancements to system specifications. All 17 ZLD installations in the deal will now feature dual compressors to improve performance and efficiency.
A mobile unit, known as the ZLD-UP, is also part of the order. It integrates three of Sprintex’s MW30 compressors to treat up to 3,000 kilograms of manure per hour. This mobile solution allows farms to process waste on-site periodically, providing both flexibility and environmental benefits.
Adding further momentum, a trial deployment is now underway at a facility operated by the Van Drie Group, the largest veal producer in the Netherlands. Two senior Sprintex engineers are finalising system integration and IoT-based diagnostics at Mest Water’s Tubbergen facility. Van Drie is evaluating the system for a potential rollout of 200 units, representing a future opportunity worth €4.8 million (A$8.58 million).
Mest Water, holding exclusive rights to ZLD technology in the Netherlands, is also the only certified supplier of this solution in the region. This exclusivity places Sprintex in a strong position to tap into the subsidy-backed farm network while supporting Europe’s broader climate targets around nitrogen and ammonia reduction.
While Sprintex is not currently listed on the ASX 200, its strategic moves and alignment with European clean-tech policy shifts reflect the type of innovation and growth trajectory often associated with ASX200 aspirants.
Sprintex’s dual-market strategy—targeting both government-supported small-scale deployments and large-scale commercial clients—signals a clear readiness to scale its clean-tech offerings throughout Europe.
