PRM Supplies Potable Drinking Water for UNC Asheville

Project Overview

Product Recovery Management (PRM), the parent company of PRMDetect, led a project to establish a filtration system that provides potable drinking water to the UNC Asheville campus. Backed by the US Army Corps of Engineers and FEMA, this initiative addressed the urgent need for clean drinking water following the devastation to the region caused by Hurricane Helene. In conjunction with our partners, PRM was able to ser up a filtration system that will serve over 1,400 students on campus, significantly enhancing their access to safe drinking water, allowing classes to resume at the university.
