Siemens Receives Frost & Sullivan's 2025 Europe, Middle East, and Africa Company of the Year Award for Excellence in Smart Water Meter Data Management
Siemens sets the benchmark in innovation and customer impact, helping utilities digitalize their operations and improve sustainable water management across EMEA SAN ANTONIO, July 1, 2025 /CNW/ -- Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce that Siemens has been awarded the 2025 Europe, Middle East, and Africa Company of the Year Award in the smart water meter data management (MDM) industry for its outstanding achievements in digital innovation, operational efficiency, and customer impact. This recognition highlights Siemens's leadership in delivering intelligent, scalable, and vendor-agnostic water MDM solutions that help utilities optimize operations, engage customers, and support long-term sustainability. Frost & Sullivan evaluates companies through a rigorous benchmarking process across two core dimensions: visionary innovation and customer impact. Siemens excelled in both, demonstrating its ability to align innovative smart water MDM solutions with real-world utility challenges while executing them at scale. "Siemens has strategically transformed MDM from a back-office billing tool to a front-line enabler of data-driven water management," said Fredrick Royan, vice president of research at Frost & Sullivan. "Its Gridscale X Meter Data Management platform brings together high-frequency data capture, AI-powered insights, and flexible deployment models—setting a new benchmark for utility digitalization." Guided by a long-term growth strategy centered on digital transformation and regional partnerships, Siemens has demonstrated its ability to navigate complex markets and sales cycles. The company's investment in cloud-based SaaS infrastructure, regulatory-compliant cybersecurity, and machine learning for anomaly detection has empowered utilities across EMEA to adopt next-generation MDM at scale. Innovation lies at the core of Siemens's value proposition. Gridscale X Meter Data Management, formerly known as EnergyIP® MDM, serves as a central hub for real-time data processing, high-accuracy billing, and customer engagement. With capabilities such as non-revenue water analysis, low-flow detection, and integrated customer portals, the platform turns raw meter data into actionable intelligence. Siemens's unwavering commitment to customer experience further strengthens its market position. By offering utilities flexible deployment models—from on-premises to SaaS—Siemens meets diverse operational needs while minimizing IT complexity. Its intuitive interface, automated VEE processes, and integration with AMI Head-End Systems and CIS platforms streamline operations and improve customer outcomes. Notably, Siemens has achieved 99.9% data accuracy and reduced daily operational task completion times by 85% for utilities leveraging its MDM system. Frost & Sullivan commends Siemens for setting a high standard in competitive strategy, execution, and market responsiveness. The company's deep domain expertise, multi-commodity integration capabilities, and strong customer support model are helping utilities modernize infrastructure, minimize losses, and increase consumer transparency—cementing Siemens's leadership in the smart water MDM market. Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents the Company of the Year Award to a company that demonstrates outstanding strategy development and implementation, resulting in measurable improvements in market share, customer satisfaction, and competitive positioning. The award recognizes forward-thinking organizations that are reshaping their industries through innovation and growth excellence. Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognize companies in various regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analyses, and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry. For six decades, Frost & Sullivan has been world-renowned for its role in helping investors, corporate leaders, and governments navigate economic changes and identify disruptive technologies, megatrends, new business models, and companies to action, resulting in a continuous flow of growth opportunities to drive future success.

Chromafora Receives Frost & Sullivan's 2025 Global New Product Innovation Award for Excellence in PFAS Water Treatment Solutions
Recognized for its proprietary SELPAXT ™ technology, Chromafora is setting a new standard for innovation and performance in advanced PFAS remediation. SAN ANTONIO, June 11, 2025 /CNW/ -- Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce that Chromafora has been awarded the 2025 Global New Product Innovation Award in the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) water treatment industry for its outstanding achievements in technological innovation and customer value enhancement. This recognition highlights Chromafora's consistent leadership in driving measurable environmental outcomes, advancing regulatory compliance, and delivering customer-centric water treatment solutions in an increasingly complex and regulated market. Frost & Sullivan evaluates companies through a rigorous benchmarking process across two core dimensions: strategy effectiveness and strategy execution. Chromafora excelled in both, demonstrating its ability to align product innovation with emerging regulatory demands while executing with precision, speed, and market relevance. "Frost & Sullivan recognizes that Chromafora is at the forefront of addressing the issue of PFAS contamination, establishing new benchmarks in water treatment technologies, and paving the way for cleaner, cost-efficient, and streamlined industrial practices," said Fredrick Royan, VP Research at Frost & Sullivan. Guided by a long-term growth strategy rooted in research excellence, sustainable practices, and strategic partnerships, Chromafora demonstrates its ability to lead in a fast-evolving water treatment landscape. The company's commitment to R&D and investment in proprietary chemistry enables it to scale effectively across critical applications in Europe and beyond, particularly as regulatory bodies tighten controls on PFAS contamination in water sources. Innovation remains central to Chromafora's approach. Its groundbreaking SELPAXT ™ solution represents a paradigm shift in PFAS remediation. By integrating Surfactant-ligand Assisted Membrane Filtration (SAMF) chemistry, ultrafiltration membranes, automatic regeneration, and remote monitoring, SELPAXT ™ delivers a comprehensive and future-ready response to both short- and long-chain PFAS compounds. "This recognition is a testament to the unique capabilities of SELPAXT ™. We have developed a concentration technology that tackles PFAS at its core — regardless of chain length — with a robustness and efficiency that sets a new standard for industrial water treatment. The combination of proprietary chemistry and ultrafiltration makes this possible." said [Johan Seijmer], [CEO] at Chromafora. Unlike conventional surface adsorption methods that often face saturation and regeneration challenges, SELPAXT ™ offers continuous performance in high-concentration PFAS environments. The solution minimizes hazardous waste and the need for landfill disposal or incineration—practices that have shown limited success in neutralizing PFAS and preventing secondary pollution. The automatic regeneration capability further enhances cost-efficiency and environmental performance by minimizing resource waste and enabling seamless long-term operations. "Frost & Sullivan acknowledges that SELPAXT ™ is a breakthrough in PFAS treatment, empowering customers with superior quality and results," added Iqra Azam, Best Practices Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. Chromafora's unwavering commitment to performance, reliability, and environmental stewardship further strengthens its competitive positioning. The company has engineered its platform not only to remove contaminants but also to offer remote monitoring capabilities for real-time process oversight. This level of control ensures operational continuity and enables proactive maintenance interventions—an important factor for industries with strict compliance mandates. Chromafora's tailored service model and scalable architecture enable it to serve municipalities, industrial clients, and environmental agencies with equal precision. Frost & Sullivan commends Chromafora for setting a new benchmark in innovation, execution, and sustainability within the PFAS water treatment industry. The company's visionary approach to complex challenges—particularly around short-chain PFAS management and waste handling—reflects a deep alignment with market needs and positions it as a global technology leader.
