All amounts in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated
QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC, (http://www.investorideas.com/ water stock blog)  H2O Innovation Inc. ("H2O Innovation" or the "Company) (tsx venture:HEO)(alternext:MNEMO), a complete water treatment solutions company providing custom designed systems along with specialty chemicals for membrane filtration systems, announces today that it has been awarded several new contracts totaling $4.3 million. These contracts will see H2O Innovation provide custom-built water treatment systems and equipment for municipal and industrial end-users, in the United States and Canada and, marginally, in Russia. These contracts bring H2O Innovation's sales backlog to $14.3 million. The Company's sales backlog is comprised entirely of systems and equipment sales and does not include sales of services and consumable products, nor does it include the backlog of the Company's Indian joint venture H2O Innovation India.
"We are pleased to have been awarded these contracts. Their signing is a result of both a higher level of bidding activity that we have been experiencing since the second half of fiscal 2010 along with capital equipment investments picking up in the industrial segment of the water treatment industry", stated Frederic Dugre, President and CEO of H2O Innovation.

As part of the contracts announced today, H2O Innovation will design, build and deliver reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration systems for the production of drinking water and for water reclamation for municipal customers located in California, Colorado, and Quebec. One of the contracts announced today will see H2O Innovation design and manufacture a 6.7 MGD low-pressure reverse osmosis system composed of two 3.35 MGD trains to treat ground water for potable use for the East Cherry Creek Valley Water & Sanitation District's Northern Water Supply Project in Colorado.


For other contracts, H2O Innovation will provide reverse osmosis systems and filtration equipment for the production of process water for U.S. and Canadian industrial customers, mostly in the energy and power generation industry. H2O Innovation has also been contracted to design, fabricate, assemble and deliver an industrial water reuse system using its patented Bio-Brane membrane bio-reactor (MBR) system to a textile plant in Russia, the Company's first recent contract in the fast growing Russian market.
