Ecol-Unicon

What Ecol-Unicon does

Ecol-Unicon Sp. z o.o. is a Polish privately-held manufacturer of water and wastewater infrastructure equipment, founded circa 1995 and headquartered in Gdańsk, with four owned production facilities in Poland. The company designs, manufactures, and services an integrated product portfolio spanning EPS and EPD pumping stations, HYDROZONE modular concrete retention tanks (Basic, Clean, and Benefit variants), reinforced-concrete TCM tanks, ESK/ESL/EST separators and EOS/EOW settlers, BIOFIT biological wastewater treatment plants, ENA II neutralizers, vortex flow regulators, and an Intelligent Storm Overflow Chamber developed under the FENG programme. The Bumerang Smart monitoring platform and SMARTSEP alarm systems provide remote telemetry, anomaly detection, and weather-integrated predictive analytics across the installed base. Ecol-Unicon serves ten industry verticals — municipal water-sewage infrastructure, road, rail, industry and logistics, energy, sea ports, airports, public utility facilities, commercial/service facilities, and residential construction — with a customer base skewed toward Polish municipalities and government agencies (GDDKiA, Port Gdańsk, MPWiK operators in Warsaw, Rzeszów, and elsewhere).

Revenue is generated through four streams: hardware sales of proprietary equipment via the Ecol-Shop e-commerce platform and direct channels; engineering and general-contractor services for water infrastructure investments; comprehensive after-sales maintenance under the Ecol-Serwis brand; and design services plus technical consulting for designers and facility operators. Go-to-market combines a specifier-driven Designer Zone portal with downloadable CAD files and selection calculators, webinars targeting designers and operators, project-pricing request tools, and a dedicated Export Department supporting multilingual sales into European markets. The company actively aligns with Polish public-sector funding mechanisms — the FEnIKS programme (PLN 4.5B / 2021-2027) and BGK 'Green Transformation' loans — and participates in EU research consortia including DECIRE-WATER (Horizon Europe) and FENG-funded intelligent stormwater R&D with NCBiR. Cumulative delivery is reported at ~10,000 pumping stations, ~30,000 oil separators, 500+ retention tanks, and 400 wastewater treatment plants over ~30 years.
