Fondriest uses the best carriers to make sure orders gets to you on time. Learn more about shipping times, methods, costs, and carriers.
Delivery Time
We keep you informed. Shortly after you place your order, you will receive an Order Acknowledgement email to confirm your order details, including shipping and a delivery estimate. Once your order has been prepared for shipment and ships, you will receive a Shipment Notification email with carrier and tracking information.
Shipping and Delivery Estimates
The 'Ships' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will ship from our warehouse. All items will ship at one time unless you specifically request partial shipment. In which case, the items on your order will ship as they become available. The 'Delivers' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will be delivered to your shipping address after it ships. The estimated delivery time depends on the shipping method you choose during checkout. All estimates are based on business days.
Shipping Options
Fondriest offers several convenient shipping options via UPS.
Ground Shipping: | Products shipped via ground service are normally delivered within five business days after shipment. |
2-Day Shipping: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers 2-day shipping for most products. Products shipped via two-day service prior to 4:00 p.m. EST are normally delivered by 7:00 p.m. local time two business days after shipment. |
Overnight Delivery: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers overnight shipping for most products. Products shipped via overnight service prior to 4:00 p.m. EST are normally delivered by 7:00 p.m. local time one business day after shipment. Earlier overnight delivery options may also be available depending on the destination. |

Remember that these estimates are for time in transit only, and that they do not apply until the product leaves the Fondriest warehouse. As the delivery of your order is beyond Fondriest's control once your order leaves the Fondriest warehouse, we cannot assume liability for late deliveries, regardless of the delivery method you specify.
Signature Required on Most Deliveries
Most of Fondriest's shipments contain valuable equipment. If you will not be at the shipping address to accept delivery of your product, consider shipping the item to an address where someone you trust will be available to sign for your package, or accept your package if a signature is not required for the delivery. Once your order has prepared for shipment or has shipped, we are unable to change the shipping address. Title and risk of loss to all products will pass to you on delivery. If you are willing to assume the risks of delivering your order without a signature, you may authorize Fondriest to arrange for a delivery that does not require anyone to be at the delivery address.
Undeliverable Packages
Occasionally packages are returned to Fondriest as undeliverable. When the carrier returns an undeliverable package to Fondriest, please contact us to make arrangements for reshipment.
Failed Delivery Attempts
Most of Fondriest carriers make three attempts to deliver a package. After three delivery attempts, the carrier will return the package to Fondriest.
Order Processing
The estimated shipment date on your order is based on product availability, payment processing time, and warehouse processing time and does not include transit time. We do not begin payment processing until Fondriest receives all of the information that is needed and full payment or a full authorization, in the case of credit card or rental orders.
Fondriest will begin payment processing for orders placed on weekends or holidays on the next business day. Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays.
Your order for in-stock items that are eligible for same-day shipping must be received before your local time of 2:00 p.m., pending payment processing, for there to be adequate remaining time in the day for your order to be dispatched.
Product Availability
Fondriest makes every effort to ship your product according to the estimated lead times. The estimated lead times are in business days (Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays).
Although Fondriest makes every effort to ship your order according to the lead time provided, shipping dates may change due to changes in supply. If the lead time changes, Fondriest will contact you via email and provide a revised shipping estimate.
Fondriest makes every effort to supply the products you order, but there may be occasions when Fondriest confirms orders and later learns that it cannot supply the products, either at all or in the quantities ordered. Although rare, these occasions can include when Fondriest learns that the products no longer are being manufactured or they otherwise become unavailable, when Fondriest cannot source components for the configuration you ordered, or when there was a pricing error at the Fondriest Online Store.
In those circumstances, Fondriest will inform you and, if you are interested, Fondriest may suggest alternative products that may meet your needs. If you do not wish to order alternative products, Fondriest will cancel your order for products that cannot be supplied and for any other products that you no longer wish to order as a result, and will refund your purchase price.

New EcoVerde bacteria-based filter removes odor from wastewater
U.S.-based company EcoVerde created a new filtering system that uses bacteria to get rid of odors and other undesirables in wastewater, according to a release from Investigación y Desarrollo. 
 
The process funnels air from over the sewage water and sends to the “bioscrubber EG” system. The air is then removed and the odor-causing organisms are sent to the filter where waiting bacteria destroy them. The filtration system employs a combination of autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria to remove a variety of pollutants using oxidation. 
 
The system can handle highly polluted sewage as this means more food for the bacteria without raising costs. EcoVerde has extended its technology to Mexico to assist districts near sewage plants.
Read MoreHach DR900 handheld colorimeter is simple, versatile and field-ready
For wastewater professionals and scientists studying changes in water chemistry, the Hach DR900 is a handheld colorimeter with streamlined features, rugged construction and value that are hard to match. 
 
Commonly used in small lab settings and mobile applications, the Hach DR900 beats similar devices on the market by making things a little more intuitive. 
 
“Many competitive products require a method number to be entered into the instrument before each test,” said Thomas Siller, product manager at Hach Company. “The DR900 has all of the methods pre-programmed into the instrument.” 
 
So after turning the DR900 on to take a measurement, users can simply scroll down the method list and select a parameter.
Read MoreFor Living Waters for the World, the mission is clean drinking water
In Tabasco, Mexico, water is left undrinkable by mineral deposits in soil and a coastal aquifer that runs beneath the Yucatan Peninsula. Many communities can’t treat it and depend on trucks to bring in drinking water. 
 
But for one small community there, a mission group helped reduce its dependence on outside water by setting up and donating a custom water filtration system. A church houses the system and gives treated water to those who can’t afford it at no cost. The water is otherwise sold commercially at half the price offered by other bottlers. 
 
Living Waters for the World is a mission project of the Presbyterian Church - USA and is no stranger to water treatment projects.
