Custom Blending and Formulations Excellence

ETI's Advanced Water Treatment Chemical Blending Capabilities

In the world of industrial water treatment, off-the-shelf solutions may fall short of addressing the unique challenges presented by specific systems and operating conditions. At ETI, we’ve built our reputation on the ability to develop tailored chemical formulations that deliver exceptional performance . Our custom blending capabilities represent the perfect fusion of scientific expertise, manufacturing precision, application-specific engineering, and our ability to listen and respond to YOUR needs.

The ETI Custom Formulation Advantage

What truly distinguishes ETI is our comprehensive approach to custom program development. Unlike suppliers who simply blend your existing products, we engineer solutions , selecting specific active ingredients and creating synergistic combinations to address your exact treatment challenges. This approach delivers:

  • Optimized performance for your specific water chemistry and system metallurgy

  • Enhanced cost-effectiveness through formulations that target your precise requirements

  • Simplified treatment by combining multiple functionalities in single products

  • Reduced chemical usage through more efficient, targeted formulations

  • Streamlined inventory with consolidated products replacing multiple chemicals

ISO 9001-Certified Quality Management

At the foundation of our custom blending capabilities lies a rigorous ISO 9001-certified quality management system that ensures consistent excellence in every formulation we develop and drum or pail that we blend. This internationally recognized certification validates our:

  • Standardized development processes that ensure repeatable formulation quality

  • Comprehensive documentation of all formulation specifications and manufacturing procedures

  • Rigorous quality testing throughout the development and production processes

  • Continuous improvement mechanisms that enhance our capabilities over time

  • Traceability systems that monitor raw materials through to finished products

  • Safety for both our team in the warehouse and yours in the field

For our customers, this certification provides confidence that products produced will maintain a consistent performance batch after batch, year after year.

State-of-the-Art Laboratory and Technical Resources

At the heart of our custom formulation capabilities is our advanced R&D laboratory, where our team of chemists, microbiologists, and water treatment specialists develop and test new formulations every day. This facility features:

  • Advanced analytical instrumentation for precise water chemistry characterization

  • Specialized testing apparatus that simulates actual operating conditions

  • Accelerated corrosion testing equipment to verify inhibitor performance

  • Microbiological testing capabilities for biocide efficacy validation

  • Pilot-scale blending equipment for seamless scale-up from lab to production

These resources enable us to move quickly from concept to field-ready formulations while ensuring performance is validated before full-scale implementation. We typically can turn an inbound phone call into a new custom, shipped formulation in four to six weeks.

Our Custom Formulation Process

Developing the ideal formulation for your specific needs follows our proven methodology. Our custom formulation process begins with a comprehensive assessment, where we thoroughly analyze your system specifications, water chemistry challenges, treatment objectives, regulatory requirements, and operational constraints. Our technical team then enters the formulation development phase, identifying optimal active components and creating synergistic combinations that enhance performance while optimizing concentration levels for cost-effectiveness. Each formulation undergoes rigorous laboratory validation including bench-scale performance evaluation, compatibility testing with system metallurgy, and stability testing to ensure manufacturing feasibility. We don’t stop at delivery—our implementation support includes feed system recommendations, performance monitoring, staff training, dosage optimization, and verification against established metrics to ensure your custom solution delivers the expected results in real-world conditions.

A Legacy of Formulation Excellence

ETI’s custom blending capabilities are built on decades of specialized formulation experience. Since our founding, we have developed thousands of application-specific formulations across diverse industries including power generation, manufacturing, healthcare, food processing, and commercial building management.

This extensive experience provides an invaluable knowledge base that informs each new custom development project, allowing us to build upon proven approaches while continuously incorporating emerging technologies and treatment methodologies.
