With the accession to the European Union in 2013, Croatia had to comply with the EU guidelines for environmental protection.

As a consequence, the wastewater treatment of many manufacturing facilities had to be upgraded to comply with the new effluent limits. Since Sugar Factory Osijek discharges wastewater to the river Drava, which adjoins a large system of natural wetlands, the management decided to invest in a state-of-the-art sludge dewatering and wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in order to protect the quality of the river water.

After a detailed planning process that included visits to reference plants from several suppliers, Sugar Factory Osijek awarded H+E GmbH with the contract for the construction of a sludge dewatering and wastewater treatment plant.
