Crystal Fountains

What Crystal Fountains does

Crystal Fountains is a Toronto-based designer and manufacturer of commercial water features, founded in 1967 and operating since the 1970s as a family-owned private company. The company produces a full portfolio of engineered components — sequencing nozzles, traditional nozzles, submersible pumps (including DMX-controlled variants), LED lighting, laminars and leapers, water feature controls, sensors, electrical connections, drains, and accessories — all designed, manufactured, and tested in-house at ISO 9001:2015-certified Toronto facilities. It also offers WATERlab™, described as the first physics-based water feature simulation software in the industry, used by architects and designers to visualize fountain performance before physical construction.

The company sells to architects, designers, contractors, government and municipal entities, hospitality and commercial real estate developers, recreation operators, and marine (cruise ship) customers via direct enterprise field sales offices in Canada, the UAE, Germany, Singapore, and the USA. Revenue is generated through hardware sales, custom manufacturing and design services, technical support, and subscription access to WATERlab™, with quote-based project-specific pricing rather than standardized list pricing. Marquee installations include the Palace of Versailles (Neptune and Latona Fountain restoration), the Apple Store at Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi, Dubai Creek Harbour, and the Las Cañadas Campamento splash pad in Mexico, supporting a brand position as a specialist in landmark and large-scale commercial water feature projects.
