Potable water is a critical global challenge, with agriculture accounting for roughly 70% of demand, followed by industrial processing (20%) and household use (10%). Despite freshwater making up only 3% of Earth's water supply, the need for reliable and sustainable clean water sources is growing. Innovative treatment and distribution technologies are essential to address water scarcity. Barksdale contributes to managing this vital resource by supporting customers in engineering new products and systems designed to improve water management and efficiency.
