Aquaox

What Aquaox does

Aquaox is a privately-held industrial technology company founded in 2008 that designs and manufactures on-site water treatment and disinfection systems based on two proprietary technologies: Electro-Chemical Activation (ECA) for generating hypochlorous acid (HOCl) from salt, water, and electricity, and nanobubble technology using ultra-fine gas bubbles under 200 nm in diameter for water oxygenation and biofilm removal. The company's product portfolio is organized across three lines—electrolyzed water generators (EA semi-automatic and EC fully-automatic series), Mixed Oxidant Water generators (MOW 40 through MOW 2 Industrial producing FAC up to ~4,500 mg/L), and nanobubble systems (AN Series and JWB-1500/8000)—complemented by a packaged HOCl solution line (AX 112 through AX 5000) at concentrations ranging from 200 to 5000 ppm.

Aquaox serves enterprise and industrial customers across food and beverage processing, healthcare, aquaculture, agriculture, facilities/hospitality, and water treatment, with named deployments including UNC Health, Silversea Cruises, Pelagos Faroer, Nordborg Trawler Faroer, Algalif Iceland, GreenHarvest Co., and Snaptun Denmark. The business model is hardware-centric and consultation-driven: quote-based pricing on multi-year contracts, direct sales with site assessment, installation, training, and ongoing support, supplemented by packaged consumables and replacement solutions. The company operates a dual-entity structure—Aquaox LLC in Loxahatchee, Florida (US headquarters, with additional Florida offices in Orlando, Tampa, and Miami) and Aquaox B.V. in Soest, Netherlands (European headquarters)—while reporting only 1-10 employees, indicating a lean, asset-light industrial hardware model.

Core offering

Aquaox manufactures and sells on-site Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl) generation systems (EA and EC series electrolyzed water devices), Mixed Oxidant Water (MOW) devices, and Nanobubble systems (AN and JWB series), complemented by ready-to-use HOCl solutions in the AX series (AX 112 through AX 5000). The systems use proprietary Electro-Chemical Activation technology to produce disinfectant from salt, water, and electricity at customer sites, serving enterprise customers in food processing, healthcare, aquaculture, agriculture, facilities, and water treatment industries.

Product overview

Aquaox offers an integrated portfolio of on-site water disinfection and treatment solutions centered on Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl) generation and nanobubble technology. The core offering consists of three product lines: Electrolyzed Water (EW) systems (EA and EC series) that generate HOCl on-site using salt, water, and electricity; Mixed Oxidant Water (MOW) devices (MOW series) producing more powerful oxidant solutions for demanding industrial applications; and Nanobubble systems (AN Series and JWB Series) that introduce ultra-fine gas bubbles (<200nm) for water treatment, oxygenation, and enhanced cleaning performance. These systems are complemented by a range of packaged HOCl solutions (AX series: AX 112 through AX 5000) at various concentrations for different applications. The technology portfolio serves diverse industries including food and beverage, healthcare, agriculture, aquaculture, hospitality, and water treatment, with the nanobubble systems designed to synergize with HOCl disinfection for amplified cleaning and biofilm removal.
