Manizales' Water Distribution System -Aguas de Manizales S.A. E.S.P.

The institutionalization of the company in 1996, once the water distribution and drainage services were split from the other services offered by the former Public Service Porvider of Manizales (Empresas Públicas de Manizales), represented the beginning of an improvement period. This includes activities focused on conservation of water sources, refinement processes, extension of water networks, process standardization, setting up of laboratories, acquisition of new technology, as well as marketing of products and services easily accessible to the public through the water bill and with a high covering commercial network [1].
