SAVECO has secured seven of the eight available lots under Northern Ireland Water’s F004 Framework for the Supply, Maintenance and Repair of Screening & Conditioning Equipment, strengthening the company’s position within the UK water and wastewater sector.
The framework covers the provision, installation and commissioning of a wide range of wastewater screening and treatment technologies used throughout Northern Ireland’s wastewater infrastructure network.
SAVECO will deliver the framework in partnership with Right Group, supporting Northern Ireland Water’s operational and asset management requirements.
Framework supports wastewater infrastructure investment
The agreement has an initial duration of two years and includes options for extension of up to a further five years.
The framework encompasses several key categories of wastewater treatment equipment including fine screens, storm overflow screens, waste transfer systems, waste treatment technologies and packaged wastewater inlet works.
Additional lots cover grit removal and treatment systems together with packaged grit plant solutions.
Supporting operational resilience across wastewater assets
Screening and conditioning equipment plays a critical role in wastewater treatment operations by removing debris, protecting downstream assets and supporting treatment efficiency.
As utilities continue to invest in infrastructure resilience, modern screening and grit handling technologies are increasingly important for maintaining operational performance and meeting environmental compliance requirements.
Equipment covered under the framework will support the management of wastewater flows and treatment processes across Northern Ireland Water’s network.
Partnership approach to delivery
According to SAVECO, delivery of the framework will be supported through its manufacturing facilities and international supply network, helping ensure access to equipment, replacement components and spare parts.
The company said the award represents an opportunity to further expand its presence within the water and wastewater sector.
Importance of screening and conditioning technologies
Wastewater screening systems are designed to remove solids and debris before they enter treatment processes, reducing operational risks and protecting equipment.
Similarly, grit removal systems help prevent abrasive materials from damaging pumps, pipework and downstream treatment assets.
These technologies form a fundamental component of modern wastewater treatment infrastructure and support long-term asset performance.
