Metito Utilities wins Zrenjanin City Award 2025 for a milestone Water Treatment PPP Project

Metito Utilities has received the Zrenjanin City Award- 2025 for the Zrenjanin Water Treatment Public–Private Partnership (PPP) Project, recognising the project’s contribution to restoring safe and reliable drinking water to the citizens of Zrenjanin. The award was received on behalf of the company by Branislav Zec, Metito Utilities Country Manager – Serbia.

Zrenjanin Water Treatment PPP Project, developed by Metito Utilities, a global investor, developer, and operator of sustainable water management solutions, and awarded by The City Administration of Zrenjanin (The City) and the public water utility company “Vodovod i kanalizacija” (PUC), has successfully restored clean and continuous drinking water supply for more than 70,000 residents in full compliance with national quality standards.

In October 2025, after the treated water was officially confirmed to meet all stringent national quality and health requirements, the long-standing 2004 ban on using municipal tap water for drinking was formally lifted, resolving one of the city’s most enduring public service challenges.

The success of the Zrenjanin Water Treatment PPP Project — the first project of its kind in Serbia — is a strong example of a shared commitment to global best practices, advanced technology, and rigorous operational standards that reinforce sustainable water security for the community and the country.
