CEOCFO:
You have been CEO at Aqua Membranes for two years; what surprised you as the company has
grown and evolved to where it is today?
Mr. Beckman
:
I would say the challenge to overcome problems we didn’t expect. We are putting our technology into another finished product and what we found is that even though we can effectively put the resin and polymer down on the membrane, the membrane element still has to be constructed and then that element has to be put in a system.
Downstream we have had to change and solve some problems that have nothing to do with 3-D printing. For example, we’ve had to modify the adhesive, or glue, that’s used when the membrane element is rolled up like a paper towel, so it works more effectively with a different type of spacer material. Some of the lessons we have learned are beyond the Printed Spacer Technology™ innovation, but we are still forced to change or tweak the broader processes in a pulse system. This brings challenge and reward.
Our team loves to overcome problems and the more we learn and the more we overcome, the better we get at it.
