Best Water technology

BWT – For You and Planet Blue.

Our strapline “For You and Planet Blue.” summarises our mission in a nutshell, which is to implement sustainable and responsible corporate strategies to satisfy both the needs of the individual and to preserve the Earth as a unique habitat.

„For You“

BWT’s aims and products are designed to serve humans and their needs; “You” are our customers, our business partners and our employees.

„For Planet Blue“

This describes the central role the element water plays in our “blue planet” and also the remit of BWT: we use our expertise to make the limited water resources of our planet accessible and usable – and always in harmony with nature.

Certification

In practical terms, we implement our vision by submitting our products and services to tests and certification processes by independent institutions to achieve the best possible standards of product quality and customer satisfaction. These include ISO 9001 accreditation and compliance with HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points). We have introduced environmental and energy management in compliance with ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 to embed the concept of sustainability in all our activities. We also send a clear signal in the area of occupational health and safety: with certification according to OHSAS 18001 – for the safety and health of our employees.

All BWT companies orient themselves to these standards, and some of our companies have already gained numerous ISO certifications, which reassures our customers and business partners that we act and work to the highest standards at all times.

Water Tech­nolo­gies

Only those who think and act innovatively will gain a technological advantage, and BWT’s innovation centres are committed to continuous research into all aspects of water treatment: filtration methods, filter media, ion exchange systems for demineralisation, softening, decarbonisation, membrane technologies (micro-, ultra- and nanofiltration, reverse osmosis), pure steam generators, pure water distilleries, UV systems, ozone generators, ion exchange membranes, electrolysis, electrodialysis, electrodeionisation, chlorine dioxide generators and dosage pumps.

We provide optimum quality water – precisely where it is needed.

Inno­va­tion by BWT

Our sole objec­tive over many years has been to improve the qual­ity of life wher­ever water is pre­sent, and to use cus­tomised water treat­ment processes to achieve the best pos­si­ble water qual­ity. How­ever, we do not limit our range to stan­dard prod­ucts, but con­stantly set new stan­dards in water tech­nol­ogy. In the spirit of our “Feel, taste, see the dif­fer­ence” phi­los­o­phy, we sup­ply prod­ucts to our cus­tomers that are gen­uinely inno­v­a­tive, which include pleas­ant-tast­ing and vital­ity-boost­ing drink­ing water, silky-soft Pearl Water as a beauty ther­apy, or water in its purest form as an essen­tial com­po­nent in high-tech appli­ca­tions. Feel, taste and see the dif­fer­ence!

Our Vision

BWT – the inter­na­tion­ally lead­ing water tech­nol­ogy group

BWT’s vision has evolved out of all these challenges and demands. We want to become the world’s market-leading water technology group, and to achieve this we must grow all the areas of our business.

Growth in every sector

One of the drivers of growth is innovation. Only those who actively and continuously develop their products and services, and think out of the box, can grow bigger and better. We also understand the importance of geography; there are currently over 80 BWT subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide and R & D departments in France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Russia. We’re working on gaining more!

To develop further, however, we must not only think of the future, but also of the here and now. This is why we strive to improve and optimise existing processes and procedures, and develop existing technologies and products in a spirit of constant improvement.

As we continue to grow, we consider it our duty to assume ecological, economic and social responsibility for all our activities.

BWT – a Cor­po­rate Suc­cess Story

An entre­pre­neur­ial spirit and a hunger for inno­va­tion and suc­cess are fac­tors that have shaped and char­ac­terised BWT as a com­pany, from its hum­ble begin­nings in Pforzheim to today’s large-scale enter­prise.

The roots of the BWT group can be traced back to 1823, when Johann Adam Benckiser founded the small chemical factory in Germany bearing his name. In 1990 Andreas Weißenbacher laid the foundations for BWT as we know it today as part of a management buy-out, and from “Benckiser Water Technology” he created the “BWT”, the bedrock underpinning our long-term success story. BWT Aktiengesellschaft’s head office was initially based in Hallein, and two years later the still young company relocated to Mondsee.
