New Delhi: Toshiba Infrastructure Systems and Solutions Corporation on Thursday said its arm TWS has won a water treatment plant contract from the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) jointly with Suez S.A. France subsidiary.

“Toshiba Water Solutions Private Limited (TWS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toshiba Infrastructure Systems and Solutions Corporation, today (Thursday) announced receiving an order… jointly with SUEZ India Private Limited (hereafter SUEZ), an Indian subsidiary of Suez S.A., in France,” the company said in a statement.
The scope of work for the order entails procurement of design, construction and commissioning of a 775 MLD (million litres per day) water treatment plant at TK Halli, Karnataka, with seven years of operation and maintenance services.
Shyam J Bhan, chief executive officer of Suez (APAC-India region), said, “Suez is firmly positioned in India for over three decades… For this new contract for the city of Bengaluru, we thank BWSSB for their trust and confidence in us.”
