Nov 5, 2026

Announced at WEFTEC 2026, the integration brings together complementary wastewater treatment technologies and expertise to better serve customers, distributors and partners.

Ramsey, New Jersey, November 5, 2026 -- North American Filtration (NAF) will integrate its Mass Transfer Systems (MTS) business into NEFCO Systems effective January 1, 2027, as announced at WEFTEC 2026 in New Orleans. The combined business will operate under the NEFCO Systems brand, uniting MTS’s jet aeration and mixing technologies with NEFCO’s engineered fiberglass wastewater treatment products.


The integration gives municipal and industrial customers access to a broader range of treatment solutions while expanding the products and technical resources available to distributors and partners. Catherine Landolfi, General Manager of NEFCO Systems, will lead the combined business.


“Our customers face increasingly complex treatment challenges, and this integration expands our ability to help solve them,” said Chris Tedeschi, President of North American Filtration. “By combining aeration, mixing and engineered fiberglass capabilities, we can address more of their project needs with coordinated engineering expertise and support.”


The expanded NEFCO Systems portfolio will include directional, bi-directional and radial pod jet aeration systems; jet mixing equipment for sludge holding tanks, equalization basins and leachate applications; floating effluent decanters with stainless-steel decant arms; fiberglass-reinforced plastic density current baffles; and baffle walls, launder covers, weirs, scum baffles and troughs.


“For our distributors and partners, the expanded portfolio creates more opportunities to serve existing customers and pursue new projects,” said Landolfi. “Our team will work closely with them on product selection and project support while helping customers navigate the transition.”


“This integration supports NAF’s growth strategy by connecting complementary products, shared expertise and customer relationships across its businesses,” said Randy Bianchi, Managing Partner of Lakelet Capital. “We continue to seek mutually beneficial acquisitions that broaden NAF’s capabilities and market reach while creating lasting value for the businesses joining NAF.”

Pierre Ng banking on ‘tougher’ Le Zonda as he faces Sa Sa Ladies’ Purse test at Sha Tin

Pierre Ng Pang-chi is hoping Le Zonda has toughened up since his last run as his promising stayer faces the biggest test of his career in the Group Three Sa Sa Ladies’ Purse (1,800m) at Sha Tin on Sunday. The two-time Irish winner pre-import made quite the impression to cap off last season, breaking through locally at the seventh attempt when sweeping from the back of the field for a comfortable success at Happy Valley over 1,800m.

WSL, PSC team up to develop next generation of Filipino surfers

SIARGAO, Philippines — The World Surf League (WSL) wants to make sure Filipino surfers get more than just the opportunity to compete against the world's best, with its partnership with the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) expected to help push the sport's development in the country. WSL president Andrew Stark said bringing the Championship Tour to Cloud 9 was also an opportunity to expose young Filipino surfers to the international competition and give local talents a closer look at what it takes to compete at the highest level. The league worked with the PSC, headed by Chairman Patrick "Pato" Gregorio, to bring the Philippines Pro to Siargao, bringing the Championship Tour to Philippine shores for the first time. Stark welcomed the support extended by the government sports agency and said the league was pleased with the reception it received from the local community. "It's incredible. It's a beautiful place and, you know, we feel very welcome here. We've got a fantastic partnership with the Philippine Sports Commission," Stark said. The WSL also brought local youngsters into the event through its Rising Tides program, where children had the chance to surf with professional athletes, meet the competitors and learn from experienced surfers. It also worked with the Siargao Island Surfing Association on the board caddy program, giving junior surfers a chance to assist competitors with their boards and experience the competition up close. "We really want to make sure we're giving back to the kids," Stark said. Stark was also impressed with the showing of Filipino wildcards John Mark "Marama" Tokong, Jayuard Alciso, Noah Arkfeld and Mara Lopez who faced an international field packed with world champions and established Championship Tour campaigners. He particularly praised Tokong, whose familiarity with Cloud 9 and ability in the water made him a tough competitor even for the visiting stars. "Marama particularly, he is incredible out here. I mean, all the world tour surfers, the world champions, they were scared of him. Like, wow, this guy is unbelievable. He's very talented," Stark said. While both Filipino bets eventually saw their campaigns end, Stark said their participation gave them valuable exposure. Their appearances in the Championship Tour were carried to an international audience through the WSL's broadcasts and digital platforms. "For those Filipino wildcards, it's life-changing for them. They've now been broadcast to the world and their social media followings will go through the roof and they're all over the mainstream media globally," Stark said. Stark believes the exposure could help Tokong, Alciso, Arkfeld and Lopez attract more attention, while also inspiring other Filipino surfers to work toward competing internationally. The Philippines Pro has also provided a boost to Siargao's tourism campaign. Athletes competing in the event have been sharing their experiences on the island through social media, giving their followers a glimpse of Cloud 9, its resorts, restaurants and other local attractions. The WSL said the Championship Tour surfers have a combined social media following of more than 50 million, giving Siargao and the Philippines added exposure to audiences around the world. Stark also revealed that the league is looking at ways to expand its presence in the country, including the possibility of establishing a regional base in the Philippines to support its activities across Southeast Asia. The WSL has already confirmed another edition of the Philippines Pro at Cloud 9 in 2027. "We've confirmed the event for 2027, so we're really excited that Cloud 9, Siargao, Philippines will be back again next year," Stark said. The return will give Filipino surfers another chance to measure themselves against international competition, while local youngsters will have more opportunities to take part in development activities organized alongside the event.

SportsPlus Foundation champions inclusive sports through partnership with Special Olympics Pilipinas

MANILA, Philippines — Every athlete deserves the opportunity to train, compete, and pursue their dreams. But for athletes with disabilities, access to appropriate sports equipment and training resources can make a meaningful difference in their journey. Recognizing the importance of inclusive sports, SportsPlus Foundation, the social development arm of SportsPlus PH, has partnered with Special Olympics Pilipinas to help address the equipment needs of athletes with disabilities. Special Olympics Pilipinas is part of the global Special Olympics movement, which uses the power of sports to promote inclusion and create opportunities for people with disabilities to develop their skills, build confidence, and experience the benefits of participation in sports. Through this partnership, SportsPlus Foundation provided equipment for various sports such as basketball, football, and badminton, among others, that meets athletes’ actual training and competition requirements on October 22 in Sta. Elena, Marikina. By coordinating closely with Special Olympics Pilipinas, the initiative ensures the support is appropriate, relevant, and aligned with the intended beneficiaries’ needs. For SportsPlus Foundation, supporting athletes with disabilities is part of a broader commitment to building communities where opportunities are more accessible, and every individual can participate and thrive. “It is our privilege to turn over this equipment to Special Olympics Pilipinas as part of SportsPlus Foundation’s efforts to promote inclusive sports and expand opportunities for Filipino athletes of all abilities,” said SportsPlus Head of Brand Marketing Paul Macalindong. “SportsPlus believes that sports should be accessible to everyone, regardless of ability or background. Through this initiative, we hope to help athletes access the equipment and training support they need to develop their skills, build confidence, and pursue their full potential.” Special Olympics Pilipinas, meanwhile, highlighted the collaboration’s role in advancing inclusive community development. “We are a non-government organization, and our funding comes from grants, including from SportsPlus, which is huge,” said Special Olympics Pilipinas Sports Manager Zoren Alfonso. “We are grateful and thankful to SportsPlus Foundation because this donation was not just sports equipment, but a path for athletes to improve in their sport. This will help them improve and experience what it feels like to have quality sports equipment that helps develop their skills.” Through partnerships like this, SportsPlus Foundation hopes to help create a more inclusive sporting environment where athletes are supported not only in training, but also in pursuing their goals.
