VA Tech Wabag has bagged a Rs 100-crore project to set up a sewage treatment plant in the Philippines, according to a press release from the company.

The World Bank-funded project involves designing and building a 20 million litre a day sewage treatment plant at Tunasan and operating and maintaining it for one year.

This is a critical project because the treated wastewater flows into Laguna Lake, one of the biggest alternate source for drinking water in the Philippines.

This has emerged an important market for Wabag which has executed three projects in Bagbag, Tatalon and Dona Imelda and is handling two large projects at Illugin and Putatan.

The release quoting Coleridge Shelley, Director – Wabag, the Philippines, said the company has established itself in the market for water and waste water treatment. Repeat orders prove Wabag is a trusted partner.
