About Us
ECO-TEK was established 1992 by Kimron Rink to promote social, ecological and economic sustainability in communities by creating and linking emerging and ancient regenerative, ecological technologies.
ECO-TEK is presently focussing on Solar Aquatics Systemstm and other ecologically engineered technologies to reclaim water and nutrients from sewage and use these constituents to grow bioregionally appropriate, plant material.
ECO-TEK incorporates cutting edge sustainable building principles into every project. Sustainable design and construction results in solar heated, low energy, heat recovering solariums for the Solar Aquatics System.
