What BlueGreen Water Technologies does

BlueGreen Water Technologies is a private environmental-technology company founded in 2014 in Israel that develops and commercializes treatments and digital monitoring for harmful algal blooms (HABs) in freshwater and marine systems. Its core product line, the Lake Guard family, comprises three patented, floating, time-release formulations — Lake Guard Oxy (sodium percarbonate, 98% w/w), Lake Guard Blue (copper sulfate, 95% w/w), and Lake Guard Dew (aluminum sulfate coagulant) — each encapsulated in a proprietary biodegradable coating that allows self-distribution to affected areas and selective targeting of cyanobacteria at the photic zone. The company operates a B2B/B2G sales-led motion focused on federal, state, and municipal water management authorities, complemented by a D2C channel selling 10 lb Lake Guard Blue packages through its own website and Amazon for US residential pond and lake owners.

Layered on top of the chemistry is BGi (BlueGreen Insights), an AI-powered water health intelligence platform launched in November 2025 that fuses satellite and drone imagery, in-situ probe data (via an AquaRealTime integration), and weather inputs into deep-learning models trained on 5+ years of environmental data to forecast bloom development days to weeks in advance. Related revenue streams include annual BGi and Lake Guard Monitor subscriptions, water-scientist consultation and project-delivery services, a regulated carbon-credit product (Net Blue, with credits verified by Social Carbon), and a marine-red-tide surveillance extension (Sea Guard Red Alert). All Lake Guard Oxy and Blue formulations hold US EPA registration, NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 drinking-water certification, and exclusive first/only approvals from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the Israeli Ministry of Health. Headquartered in Modi'in-Maccabim-Re'ut with regional offices in Houston (US), Beijing (China), and Sandton (South Africa), the company has treated hundreds of water bodies across three continents, including 3,000-acre Nanhu Lake in China, 1,890-acre Lake Minneola and 21-mile St. Lucie Canal in Florida, 1,100-acre Roodeplaat Dam in South Africa, and 3,000-acre Setumo Dam in South Africa (44,000 tons CO2 removal; water restored for 500,000+ residents).
