Josab Water Solutions is a Swedish company in a global setting. Our products, solutions and
operations are found all over the world. We want to create a world where more people can get access to clean water.
To filter water is a 1000-year old technique and the most well-tried in the world. At Josab, we purify polluted or in other ways contaminated water to enable more people to have drinking water. Today contaminations of air, soil and water affect more and more people across the globe. Clean water is in many cases directly decisive to be able to live a decent life.
Our method is one of a kind. Water is purified through a filter with our patented technology and mineral Aqualite™. The method is completely ecological and purifies water without additives and chemicals. Our way of purifying contaminated water meets both our client’s demands for purity as well as the global WHO standard.
Today the mineral Aqualite™ is mined in our proprietary mine, The Ratka mine in Hungary. Aqualite™ carries fantastic capabilities. It belongs to the mineral group called Zeolites with a rare ability to transport, adsorb and generate ion exchange in water. This way bacteria are eliminated without chlorine or other chemicals. Aqualite™ is so far the only zeolite in the world that possesses the necessary capabilities to purify water in the scale we do at Josab.
Aqualite™ provides an effective purification without the use of chemicals. On the location of the Ratka mine, the mineral has a specific and more porous surface, within the interval 200-500 m3/g. This makes Aqualite™ filtering reduce particles by >1 micron. Parasites and bacteria are reduced by 90-98 percent. Complemented by UV-filtering, processed water is completely purified from bacteria, viruses and parasites, including pathogens such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium, which are resistant to chlorine and many forms of UV-radiation. The result is perfectly healthy drinking water.
In all segments of the supply chain, our sustainability work strives to create products, technology and know-how that is sustainable and ecological. The global water consumption is expected to have a yearly increase of 3 percent. While 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, the global sweet water supply decreases every year. In developing countries, the for many years ongoing trend of substantially increased water consumption is expected to continue. Due to the growing global population, particularly in regions with scarcity of water, industrialization of developing countries means increasing economic growth, where the provision of water within the industrial sector is predicted to expand 400 percent by 2050.
