COMPANY PROFILE

QFS was formed in 1996 by Hennie Smit and Herman Smit. The company started out selling a range of absolute rated cartridges. The applications focused on pharmaceutical, food & beverage and chemical filtration.

The product range was increased in 1998 to include micro filtration hollow fibre membrane systems. The need for micro filtration with low maintenance costs resulted in QFS taking up the Memcor agency for Southern Africa.

It quickly became apparent that South Africa could not afford to purchase complete plants from Australia. QFS signed a licence agreement with Memcor and have been manufacturing the Memcor membrane equipment in South Africa from 1999. In this process QFS built the capability to manufacture, install and service the Memcor equipment.

Further need for other membrane related plants from our customers resulted in Ultra filtration, Nano filtration and Reverse Osmosis being added to our product range. QFS have the capability to do pilot studies on specialized applications and manufacture the applicable membrane based plants.

Applications:

- Potable water filtration
- Iron removal for potable water
- Effluent treatment
- Sea water desalination
- Mine water treatment
- Cooling water filtration

- Sewage treatment


QFS can design, manufacture, install, commission and maintain Ultra filtration membrane plants.
