Our formulations
A catalog of mineral, electrolyte, and flavor concentrates developed and produced in-house for low-TDS water — ready to dose on day one, no qualification work required.
Markets — Industrial
Water is your first ingredient. Treat it like one.
Metered mineral dosing verified in-line by conductivity — so the water entering your process is the water your spec says it should be, with the records to prove it.
The problem
Your recipe is fixed. Your water isn't.
Batch drift
Source water wanders with the season, the aquifer, and the municipal blend. Every unmeasured liter is a variable hiding inside your product.
Manual dosing
Graduated cylinders, scoops, and "the way Dave does it" are error surfaces. Precision that depends on attention isn't precision.
Water without records
QA wants numbers for every input. Hand-dosed water leaves a signature on the batch sheet and nothing behind it.
Rigid dosing equipment
Traditional dosing skids are sized once, integrated painfully, and rarely verify their own output. Precision should follow your line — not dictate it.
The fix
Dose. Verify. Log. Repeat — identically.
The ActiveWater platform meters concentrates into flowing water in drop-scale increments, verifies the result by conductivity with temperature compensation, and records what it did. It's a lab instrument's attitude applied to a process input.
- Metered dosing proportioned to measured flow — not timers, not guesswork.
- In-line verification — conductivity confirms every dose landed on target.
- Event records — dosing activity and faults, available for your QA trail.
- Local-first control — runs without a cloud dependency; connectivity is optional.
- Fail-safe behavior — any fault stops dosing and passes water unmodified.
The chemistry
Ours, yours, or built for you.
The dosing platform is chemistry-agnostic by design — if it belongs in water, we can meter it.
Your formulation
Already have chemistry? We qualify your concentrate through the dosing path — compatibility, stability, metering accuracy — and the system doses it with the same drop-level, conductivity-verified precision as our own.
Custom, produced for you
Need something that doesn't exist yet? Our formulation team develops it to your spec — a taste target, a functional ingredient, a process requirement — and produces it in sealed cassettes, exclusively for you.
The requirements are the sensible ones: a liquid concentrate, appropriate for its destination — drinking water, food production, or machinery — that passes our qualification path. Minerals, electrolytes, flavors, functional ingredients — from trace doses to rich blends.
Any scale
Dosing proportional to measured flow is an architecture, not a size. Metering, manifolds, and plumbing are sized to your line — a development bench, a bottling line, a machinery feed loop — and the measurement-and-verification loop stays identical at every flow rate.
Whatever the water is for — drinking, food and beverage production, machinery and boiler feed, rinse and process lines — we integrate at your scale today, scoped to your flow and your controls through the programs below.
Programs
Three ways to work with the platform.
Evaluation units
Instrumented systems for labs, pilot lines, and production sites — put measured, verified water in front of your team and let the data argue for itself.
Co-development
Your process, our dosing and sensing stack. We engineer the integration together — flow range, chemistry, controls interface — with clear milestones and shared IP boundaries agreed up front.
OEM licensing
Build the patent-pending architecture into your own product — metering, verification loop, and firmware — under license, with our engineering support behind it.

Common questions
What flow rates do you support?
Any — dosing scales with measured flow by design, so flow rate is a sizing parameter, not a ceiling. We size the metering and integration to your line during scoping, from bench-top rigs to production mains, and the verification works the same way at every scale.
Can it feed data into our QA systems?
Dosing and verification events are recorded by the system and exportable; direct integration with your historian or QA stack is scoped per engagement. Local-first design means your data doesn't have to transit anyone's cloud, including ours.
Whose chemistry does it dose?
Whichever serves the goal: our in-house catalog ships with the platform, your existing formulation can be qualified through the dosing path, or our formulation team develops and produces a custom concentrate to your spec. All three run through the same metering and verification.
