Bishop Ascendant Enters Strategic Agreements with Key Suppliers
New partnerships launch next growth phase for development of innovative water purification technology.
West Caldwell, NJ, September 15, 2018 – Bishop Ascendant, an innovator in applying technology to solve the global clean water crisis, today announced that it has formed strategic partnerships with two firms that will supply integral components of its Spark Project. Spark is a multi-faceted solution to address water scarcity challenges that affect populations worldwide, combining technologies for water filtration and purification, power generation, and networked internet, satellite and cellular communications into a modular, portable and self-sustaining system that is lightweight and easily deployed.
In July, the company began working with Formed Plastics , a long-time industry leader in custom rotational molding, thermoforming and fabrication. Formed Plastics manufacture major components for Spark units which will then be assembled at Bishop Ascendant-authorized manufacturing plants.
In September, the company signed an agreement with Sentral Energy to engage in joint marketing and business development activities in overseas markets where Sentral has strong relationships with organizations that are potential Spark clients. Sentral’s solutions have been integral to several major solar projects in developing regions such as West Africa and India.
Bishop Ascendant CEO Justin Bishop stated that “partnerships with top notch firms such as Formed Plastics and Sentral Energy are key to making Spark the highest-quality solution possible. After carefully considering a range of supplier options, we are delighted to be partnering with these two leading organizations, whose deep expertise, strict standards of excellence, and strong connections to markets in need will help us bring Spark to fruition.”
