Dr. Gene Shelp, President and CEO of ENPAR Technologies Inc. (TSX-V:ENP) (\"ENPAR\" or \"the Company\"), is very pleased to announce that ENPAR has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Eurodia (www.eurodia.com) of France to evaluate and commercialize ENPAR's novel water treatment technologies to its customers in Europe, North Africa and North America.
