Founded in 2005, Water Security Corporation (WSC) provides Water Purifying Technology that kills disease causing germs and provides affordable and healthful drinking water at the point-of-use: homes, medical centers, schools, offices, and rural villages. WSC licenses its purification technology to companies that manufacture and market consumer water purification products, portable water purifiers, and other point-of-use and point-of-entry water purification products. Additionally, WSC manufactures and sells rural village water purification systems via regional distributors.
Most people in the world must purify the water from their kitchen tap for it to be safe from bacteria and viruses. At least 2 billion people need an affordable kitchen water purifier to keep their family healthy.
WSC’s commercially available technology, today, is based on iodine. This technology was originally developed for NASA’s use in space due to its exceptionally safe, reliable and user friendly characteristics. WSC R&D has focused on advancing and productizing iodinated resin technology for affordable and practical home use in consumer products worldwide. Their technology is space certified and their partners are eligible to use the ‘space certified logo’ in their merchandising of WSC based products.
They license their portfolio of patented intellectual property and proprietary know-how to key global corporations. Eureka Forbes Ltd., the home water purifier market share leader in India, has licensed WSC’s technology. Additionally, they have designed and deliver, via regional distributors, their Discovery System which produces purified drinking water for small villages, medical centers, and schools in rural and under-developed environments.
Their mission for licensing their technology is to enable global corporations to profitably deliver affordable, point-of-use water purification products and serve the enormous need for safe, healthful drinking water throughout the world. For much of the world, a clear glass of drinking water from the home faucet can cause sickness or a life threatening disease. After treatment in municipal plants, the water may be reinfected with pathogens as it travels to homes and schools through the network of pipes that may have been compromised in any number of ways. This problem is often recognized in India, Mexico, China, Malaysia, Russia, Latin America, and many countries where the infrastructure is aging significantly.
WSC’s innovative purification technology is safe and reliable for consumer’s use in the home, and it is ecologically-friendly. It is simple and reliable to use in point-of-use systems, because it does not require electricity, high pressure or piped water. WSC has R&D expertise in chemistry, microbiology, and filtration design for pathogen removal in POU (point-of–use) and POE (point-of-entry) water purification systems. Their R&D continues to advance cost and performance improvements, as well as, expands the application uses of their technology.
Currently their purification technology is deployed in low cost consumer home products, rural village systems, and in disaster relief water purification products. Water Security Corporation licenses its water purification technology and proprietary know-how to consumer product manufacturers who can profitably market home water purification products to the hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Additionally, WSC has designed and delivered hundreds of rural village systems. NASA has used the iodinated resin technology for nearly 30 years on the Space Shuttle and Space Station because it is safe, reliable and effective. WSC technology is space certified and their partners may use the ‘space certified logo’ in their merchandising of WSC technology based products.
WSC values being an ethical company with a social conscience, and strives to be recognized for its integrity, loyalty to stakeholders, and commitment to improving society through profitably providing solutions to quality of life problems. They continue to advance their scientific research for effective and efficient removal of pathogens from drinking water while working in creative partnerships with global companies to profitably design and deliver highly affordable and safe consumer water purification products. In addition to providing affordable, healthful drinking water, their technology offers the ecologically green benefit of dramatically reducing the number of plastic bottles going to land fills. One low cost consumer purifier can provide the equivalent of 2000 to 6000 liters of bottled water depending on its design.
