Celebrating Our 25th Anniversary
We have earned the reputation of being a true partner with our customers because what makes us unique is our expertise combined with high-quality products, exceptional filed application, and technical support.

ETI was founded in 1986 by the principals of three independent water treatment service companies who had a shared vision of creating a support entity to complement their organizations. The owners envisioned a supporting structure that would allow them to be at their best for their customers. Twenty-five years later, that model continues to successfully drive ETI's operation in 2011. We offer first rate production, a complete portfolio of house and custom formulations, in-house and field support, training, laboratory and regulatory support, and a customer service staff to process orders accurately and professionally. Our strength comes from experience gained in supporting those three original companies and what has grown to a network of over thirty distributor partner companies with a total customer base of more than 150 businesses.

New Training Facility Unveiled
One of ETI's long standing commitments to the industry is the on-going training and experience sharing between our distributors. Additionally, we are committed to training our distributors' new hires who may be new to the water treatment industry or new to the ETI distributor network. The new training area is a renovated 3,200 square foot space that underscores our long term commitment to training and continuous improvement.

Distributor of the Year Award
In April, 2011, Albemarle presented ETI with their Distributor of the Year Award for the third time. The basis for this annual award are leadership, performance and support, and ETI is very proud to be recognized for their on-going partnership with Albemarle. The award was presented during an ETI employee appreciation luncheon. President Gary Reggiani thanked Albemarle and comments that "this award reflects the commitment of our ETI employees to excellence in serving our customers, supporting our suppliers and taking a proactive role in ensuring product stewardship is maintained throughout the distribution channel."

Dave Ritz Promoted to Technical Director
As of January 3, 2011, ETI announces the promotion of David B. Ritz to Technical Director. In this new position, Dave will oversee assessment and integration of new technologies and be responsible for technical and sales support, marketing, and new sales development.
