Sustainable shift Kriss expanded in 2016 to include all-natural and sustainable plant-based water treatment solutions, creating an opportunity to upsell non-hazardous programs that reduce chemical usage and water consumption for potential customers seeking greener operations.

Midwest footprint With headquarters in Minneapolis and a focus on Midwest customers, Kriss has established local service and support networks. This presents a foothold for expanding adjacent facilities in manufacturing, food processing, and commercial sectors within the region that require compliant, efficient water treatment programs.

Full service partner Kriss emphasizes programs supported by a dedicated service team and maintenance engineers, suggesting opportunities to position comprehensive life-cycle services, ongoing monitoring, and optimization contracts to existing clients and target accounts.

Lean scale advantage Smaller company size (2-10 employees) coupled with a scalable product line implies agility. This can be leveraged to offer flexible, customized solutions, pilot programs, or quick-start deployments for facilities seeking rapid improvement with measurable ROI.

Technology backbone Current tech stack includes WordPress, Salesforce, and data/tools integration capabilities; sales teams can leverage CRM-driven outreach and targeted campaigns to identify facilities with water treatment challenges, enabling account-based selling and tracking of program performance.
