What ALVATECH does
ALVATECH (legal entity: ACTIVEWATER TECHNOLOGY Limited) is a London-headquartered agricultural-technology company that develops and distributes chemical-free, solar-compatible water treatment hardware for farmers. The company's core offering is the ALVA product family — four devices (ALVA5, ALVA25, ALVA50, ALVA100) ranging in flow capacity from 5-10 m³/hour for smallholders and specialty operations up to 100-110 m³/hour for large-scale farms. The technology claims to alter the molecular structure of water to reduce salt crystal size, enabling the use of saline, hard, and brackish water sources for irrigation without harming soil biology, and the ALVA100 extends the platform with integrated soil-moisture, EC, and temperature sensors. Manufacturing is performed under ISO 9001 certification through Accurate Labs.
The business operates across three primary customer segments: individual farmers (from sub-2-acre smallholders to large commercial operations), third-party distributors who resell the technology in their regions, and government bodies or NGOs deploying the technology for regional agricultural-transformation projects. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of ALVA devices and complementary ALVA Solar panels, supplemented by a subscription model that allows monthly payment for farmers who lack upfront capital and is also positioned for inclusion in government subsidy schemes. Distribution combines a channel-partner model across 24 countries on six continents with direct enterprise sales to governments and large agricultural operators. Demonstrated customer outcomes cited by the company include approximately 40% soil salinity reduction, 20-30% crop yield increases, and 30% water savings.
The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors. Capital has been raised primarily via two Crowdcube crowdfunding rounds — approximately $714,280 in May 2021 and approximately $105,087 in May 2022 — alongside operating cash flow from device sales. The leadership team is led by CEO and Managing Director Zac Gazit, with Chief Finance Officer Zahid Anwar and Chief Agronomist Yuval Chen heading agronomy. The company aligns its positioning with multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals and runs a partnership with One Tree Planted to plant trees for each new client, device, or distributor. Headcount sits at 11-50 employees based in London, with the registered office at 55 Loudoun Road, NW8 0DL (Company No. 15079843).

ALVATECH product offering
Product offeringCore offering
ALVATECH (operating as ACTIVEWATER TECHNOLOGY) designs, manufactures, and sells physical water treatment devices under the ALVA product line (ALVA5, ALVA25, ALVA50, ALVA100) that use proprietary molecular-structuring technology to reduce salinity in irrigation water, enabling farmers to use saline, brackish, or hard water without damaging soil or crops. The devices are chemical-free, solar-powered, and target commercial farmers, smallholders, and large-scale agricultural operations across water-scarce regions.
Product overview
ALVATECH (ACTIVEWATER TECHNOLOGY) offers a portfolio of physical water treatment devices—the ALVA product line—designed to treat saline and brackish water for agricultural irrigation. The product line includes four models (ALVA5, ALVA25, ALVA50, ALVA100) differentiated by water flow capacity, ranging from 5-10 m3/hour for smallholder/specialty operations up to 100-110 m3/hour for large-scale field operations. All devices share core functionality: reducing soil salinity, preventing dripper/sprinkler blockages, improving water infiltration, and enhancing plant absorption. The devices are chemical-free, solar-powered (with electric backup), and incorporate sensor configurations for monitoring soil moisture, EC levels, and temperature. The technology is targeted at farmers, distributors, and governments operating in arid regions with water scarcity challenges.

Products and services
- ALVA5 A versatile water treatment device with 5-10 cubic meters per hour capacity, designed for smallholder fields, greenhouses, hydroponics, vertical farming and nurseries. Reduces salinity levels around root zones, leaches salt in soil and soilless settings, and prevents limescale blockages in drippers and sprinklers. Powered by solar panels or electricity.
- ALVA25 A water treatment device with 25-35 cubic meters per hour capacity, designed for medium-size farms, larger greenhouses and net houses, or multi-unit installations within large farms. Reduces salinity levels around root zones, eliminates salt crusts and walls, and keeps drippers and sprinklers clear of limescale blockages. Powered by ALVA Solar panels or electricity.
- ALVA50 A powerful and robust water treatment device with 50-55 cubic meters per hour capacity, designed for large farms. Reduces salinity levels around root zones, leaches salt and breaks salt crusts and walls. Keeps drippers and sprinklers clear of limescale blockages, extending irrigation system functionality and longevity. Can be installed in clusters, above or below ground, powered by solar panels or electricity.
- ALVA100 A high-capacity water treatment device with 100-110 cubic meters per hour flow rate, designed for large-scale agricultural operations. Features horizontal or vertical installation options. Implements sensors for continuous tracking of irrigation including soil moisture, EC meters, and temperature. Operates on low voltage (5 watts, 24-VDC) for energy efficiency.

ALVATECH competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- N-Drip: Israel-based company that supplies precision micro-irrigation systems enabling farmers to grow more with less water, often without electricity or filters. Directly comparable to ALVATECH in serving water-stressed agriculture with hardware-driven productivity gains, though N-Drip focuses on drip emitters rather than water-molecular treatment.
Broad incumbents
- Jain Irrigation Systems: Large Indian irrigation and agricultural-input company offering drip and sprinkler systems, piping, and water-management solutions globally. Comparable to ALVATECH as a broad incumbent addressing agricultural water optimization, with greater scale and channel breadth.
- Lindsay Corporation: US-based manufacturer of Zimmatic center-pivot and lateral-move irrigation systems plus irrigation-technology solutions (FieldNET). A broad incumbent in agricultural water delivery comparable to ALVATECH in end-user segment, though focused on mechanized irrigation rather than water-treatment chemistry.

Emerging players
- CropX: Israel-based precision-agriculture platform combining soil sensors, satellite imagery, and analytics for irrigation and fertigation decisions. Comparable to ALVATECH on the sensor and soil-salinity-monitoring dimension of ALVA100, though CropX is software-led rather than hardware-treatment-led.
- Saturas: Israel-based ag-tech company developing stem-water-potential sensors for precision irrigation. Comparable to ALVATECH's sensor integration on ALVA100, focused on enabling data-driven water management for high-value crops in arid regions.
- AquaSpy: Producer of in-soil moisture and salinity profiling sensors used to manage irrigation and fertilizer applications. Comparable to ALVATECH as an emerging player in agricultural soil-water monitoring and salinity management for growers.
- Tevatronic: Israeli precision-irrigation startup offering sensor-driven, autonomous irrigation decision systems for high-value crops. Comparable to ALVATECH's precision-irrigation and sensor-integration capabilities, focused on software/automation rather than physical water treatment.
Regional players
- H2O Innovation: Canadian water-treatment specialist focused on membrane systems, filtration, and specialty chemicals for municipal/industrial customers. Adjacent peer to ALVATECH in physical water-treatment engineering, though focused on industrial/municipal rather than agricultural irrigation.
Others
- Jain Farm Fresh Foods (water-tech division): Adjacent agribusiness working on water-efficient cultivation and processing in horticulture. Comparable to ALVATECH's high-value crop focus (avocados, passion fruit) but operating as a grower/processor rather than an equipment vendor.
