The source of truth for the world's water industry.
A verified, provenance-backed directory of water companies — Asia-first — welded to daily intelligence and an open Water Wiki that humans, search engines and AI agents all treat as canonical.

Three assets, welded into one.
The Global Water Directory
Every company whose business touches water — structured, verified, evidence-backed, multilingual, and built to be cited.
View allThe Intelligence Engine
The fastest, most complete multilingual view of what is happening in water — AI-aggregated, human-governed, every claim sourced.
View allThe Water Wiki
An openly licensed, citation-anchored reference for water technologies, contaminants, standards and processes — synchronized with the research literature.

View allMapping the seed corpus: where the water industry's suppliers cluster
What 33 verified seed profiles across 14 countries already reveal about the industry's Asian center of gravity — and what 250,000 profiles will show.
Desalination past the 100-million-m³/day mark: what the project data shows
Global installed desalination capacity has passed 100 million m³ per day across roughly 20,000+ plants — and reverse osmosis now dominates new builds.

A living overview of the policy lines that shape the world's largest water market, from the 14th Five-Year Plan era into current programs.
EU adopts recast Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive
Quaternary treatment for micropollutants, energy neutrality for the sector, and extended producer responsibility for pharma and cosmetics.
Asia-first. Evidence-backed.
View allToray Industries
Advanced-materials group and one of the world's leading reverse-osmosis and membrane manufacturers; Toray membranes serve desalination, wastewater reuse and industrial process water worldwide.
Beijing OriginWater Technology
China's membrane-bioreactor champion — one of the world's largest MBR technology companies by installed capacity, spanning membrane manufacturing, municipal wastewater plants and reuse projects.
VA Tech Wabag
Pure-play water EPC and O&M multinational with Viennese heritage and Chennai headquarters — desalination, municipal and industrial treatment across India, MEA, Southeast Asia and Europe.
ACWA Power
Developer-investor-operator of power and desalinated-water plants; the world's largest private desalinated-water producer by contracted capacity, including record-scale SWRO projects such as Taweelah and Rabigh 3.
Kurita Water Industries
One of the world's largest water-treatment chemical and facility companies, spanning treatment chemicals, ultrapure water for electronics, and plant engineering and maintenance across Asia, the Americas and EMEA.
Veolia
The world's largest environmental-services group — water, waste and energy — operating drinking-water and wastewater services for hundreds of millions of people, plus Veolia Water Technologies and the WTS portfolio.
A water knowledge graph, built exactly like Wikidata.
Every article links to the companies it mentions; every company links to the technologies it sells; every technology links to the wiki article, the standards and the projects. That interlinking — not any single pillar — is the moat.

View allPFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances)
PFAS are a large family of synthetic fluorinated chemicals valued for water- and grease-resistance but extremely persistent in the environment and linked to health effects. They are the highest-intensity contaminant topic in the water sector, driving new regulations and a large treatment market.
Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a pressure-driven membrane process that removes dissolved salts and most other contaminants by forcing water through a semipermeable membrane against the osmotic gradient. It is the dominant technology in modern seawater desalination and high-purity industrial water.
Seawater Desalination
Seawater desalination produces fresh water from the ocean, principally by reverse osmosis (membrane) or thermal distillation (MSF/MED). Global installed capacity exceeds 100 million m³/day, concentrated in the Middle East but growing fastest in Asia and North Africa.
Graded, evidenced accuracy — never pretended uniformity.
Every field stores its source, retrieval date, method and confidence. Every profile shows a verification tier. Every article publishes its automation level. We never claim uniform accuracy — we expose it.
Become the reference. For everyone — and everything.
One canonical home for the water industry — for humans, search engines and AI agents alike.
