Sourcing raw materials locally is expected to be a method to reduce transportation costs and enable suppliers to offer coagulants and flocculants at affordable prices while maintaining their profit margins.Click here to visit the Frost & Sullivan website.To join the editorial team of Hydroplus, click here.
