Do you want to strengthen your position as a supplier to water consuming industries in Southern Sweden?
Join this 3-day delegation trip to learn more about the challenges manufacturing industries in Sweden are facing in their drive to improve water and energy efficiency.
The focus and objective with the delegation trip is for Danish companies to meet with select industries to create relationships and dialog for developing partnerships leading to potential sales.
Be part of a focused and dedicated group of Danish water technology companies of know-how, technologies, components, and solutions for the water sector, who will visit industrial production facilities, and learn about their current operations, strategy, challenges and needs within resource efficiency (water and energy), resource recovery. We will meet industries for instance within beverage, textile, chemical, and medical. At each site we will meet with key managerial and technical staff and tour their operations and production facilities.
Participants will get the opportunity to understand the industry's challenges and needs, to pitch and discuss value creation of own solutions and technologies.

"When we visit Germany backed by the Danish Export Association, it opens doors and gets more players on the field, than if we seek out the customers ourselves. We also experience a higher degree of respect and acknowledgement because we are seen as more professional and competent as part of a strong Danish brand."
Søren Hother Rasmussen, Danish Clean Water
The market and opportunities
Svenskt Vatten estimates the investment need in the water sector to be SEK 23 billion annually with an investment backlog of SEK 7 billion. In addition, water, which until now has been considered an infinite resource, is increasingly considered a scarce resource. Sweden has experienced record high energy prices throughout the country, with the highest prices found in the southern half, above all in Skåne. Energy and water efficiency therefore quickly becomes profitable and is absolutely necessary to avoid power and supply shortages. Sweden also has a big focus on the global goals agenda and aims to be 100% on renewable energy by 2040 and be CO2 neutral by 2045.
Swedish industry is at the forefront of the climate agenda, but thus faces major challenges with rising prices for water, electricity, and ambitious climate and environmental requirements.
Industry is one of the main water users in Europe, accounting for about 40% of total water abstractions, according to Eurostat, the European statistics agency. Statistics don’t differ much in other parts of the world. Water is used at every step of the production process e.g. for cooling, heating, polishing, cleaning/washing, diluting etc.
