Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Greece, ERMA FIRST is an experienced manufacturer of ballast water treatment systems (BWΤS).

The ERMA FIRST FIT BWTS, the industry-benchmark ballast water treatment system, is an advanced modular system which can be installed on both newbuilds and as a retrofit. Covering an extensive capacity range from 50 to 3600m3/hr and holding USCG Type Approval, ERMA FIRST FIT is an ideal solution for all types of ships.

ERMA FIRST also brings to the market the smallest and easiest to install ballast water treatment system through its acquisition of US firm oneTANK, a subsidiary of US naval architecture and marine engineering firm Glosten.

oneTANK is a small scale innovative, low-cost, IMO Revised G8 Code and United States Coast Guard compliant system. Also, its mixing technology is developed and patented by U.S. Geological Survey.

The oneTANK system is a game-changer for smaller vessels struggling to comply with stringent ballast water regulations. It is a simple, low cost and fully automated offering. This makes it ideal for smaller vessels that don’t ballast regularly and often have space restrictions, such as workboats, tugboats, fishing boats and superyachts as well as semi-subs and tanker aftpeak tanks. The fitting is fast, flexible and economical.

ERMA FIRST provides sales, maintenance and training services to its clients via a global network of offices in 46 countries.

ERMA FIRST is the winner of the Lloyd’s List Technical Achievement Award (2013) and the Green4Sea Technology Award (2016).
