Get that fresh and clean water with Hydroleap! This Singaporean startup uses electricity to treat industrial wastewater and seawater.
Investor check. Hydroleap just raised a $4.4M seed led by Japan’s Real Tech Holdings.
🌊 We're thirsty
By 2025, two thirds (yes, two thirds!) of the world’s population could face water shortages. Goodbye, daily showers. Hello, water rations a la Mad Max Fury Road.
Solutions? Treating wastewater (and even seawater) to meet industrial and consumption standards, which Hydroleap does, is a way to avoid this.
🚿 It’s circular
It’s not just about drinking water or the water you need to wash your dishes.
Tons of industries, from F&B and construction to fashion, rely on water in their manufacturing processes too!
But their wastewater contains harmful pollutants, which could end up in our seas and rivers.
Using the SEA. Oh, and they're also bringing innovation to desalination (aka, the process of removing salt and minerals from seawater).
🏊 Jump in
They’ll enter Australia, Japan, and Indonesia in the next two years. Oh, and they’ll double down on their R&D too.
