What FieldFactors does

FieldFactors BV is a Dutch water technology company headquartered at De Bouwcampus on the TU Delft campus in Delft, Netherlands, founded in 2016 by Karina Peña (CEO) and Wilrik Kok (CCO). The company designs and deploys BlueBloqs, a modular nature-based circular water system that captures, biofiltrates, stores, and reuses urban rainwater underground. The technology stack comprises BlueBiofilter (a constructed wetland with vertical downward flow that removes metals, nutrients, and micropollutants), BlueWell (aquifer storage and recovery), BlueHub (central operational controls), and the H2Q Dashboard (real-time monitoring and ESG reporting). The EU LIFE-funded GreenLED initiative extends the system with APRIA Systems' UV-C LED disinfection for close-contact urban reuse.

FieldFactors generates revenue primarily through custom-engineered system sales and implementation contracts with municipalities, water authorities, project developers, sports facilities, and corporate ESG clients, supplemented by feasibility studies and ongoing performance monitoring services. Projects are typically multi-year, with pricing scoped per catchment area, storage capacity, and site conditions rather than published rate cards. Customer outcomes are documented in named reference projects including Sparta Stadium Rotterdam (40,000 m² catchment), Pijnacker-Nootdorp (45,500 m²), Rotterdam Zoo (9 million liters/year saved), Real Valladolid's Zorrilla Stadium, and the Rain2River partnership with Microsoft in Madrid targeting 200,000 m³/year of stormwater replenishment.

The company operates a B2G and enterprise field sales motion with extended sales cycles, supported by an active presence in accelerator programs (Imagine H2O, 100+ Accelerator with AB InBev, UpLink/WEF) and EU-funded consortium validation (LIFE GreenLED, EIT Climate-KIC). Geographically active in the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, and Mexico with Asian market entry enabled by a March 2026 investment from Omusubi Venture Fund I, FieldFactors raised €1.65M in July 2025 to fund European and Mexican expansion. The company employs a multidisciplinary team of 11–50 designers, engineers, and water scientists.
