Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, is pleased to announce an agreement with Canadian water monitoring leader, Aquatic Life Ltd., specialized in environmental water monitoring and in the development of real-time water monitoring systems.

With this partnership, Rockwell Automation will provide its customers with a collaborative approach to sustainability and water stewardship, including innovative water automation solutions. Rockwell’s customers will be enabled to accelerate and achieve their water efficiency and conservation objectives through the visualization, analysis, and control of their operations.

“We’re excited to partner with Aquatic Life to strengthen and expand our company’s water stewardship goals and offerings,” said Tom O’Reilly, vice president, sustainability, Rockwell Automation, “By helping our customers better understand environmental and process water quality, we enable them to mitigate water risk and achieve their production and sustainability goals. This joint effort exemplifies our unwavering dedication to sustainable practices and responsible water management, amplifying our positive impact on our planet and communities.”

While this collaboration will reach and serve customers across different water-intensive industries, a special focus will be on mining, considered to be one of the highest water-consuming industries in the world. Water is a top priority for mining companies as they look for data and information on water consumption, watersheds, and algae. Through the partnership with Aquatic Life, Rockwell Automation will engage with mining customers from the pre-construction phase through post-mining operations.

“Serving a global client base, we are thrilled to bring our water monitoring solutions to yet another partner, Rockwell Automation,” said Jeff Simpson, president and chief executive officer, Aquatic Life. “Not only do we offer the highest quality environmental monitoring solutions, we also provide the analysis and insights that can turn raw data into transformational understanding. With a commitment to innovation and excellence, we are eager to take on unique challenges in water management. We look forward to building efficiencies and raising the bar for holistic mine water and risk management.”

For more than 120 years, Rockwell’s technology and expertise have improved the efficiency of industrial processes, which includes making the most of scarce resources.

Central to Rockwell Automation’s purpose is connecting the imagination of people with the potential of technology, to expand human possibility and make the world more connected, more productive, and more sustainable.

Rockwell Automation is committed to environmental and water stewardship and remains steadfast in its pursuit of innovative solutions that accelerate the journey toward achieving net zero.
