What Ecosol does
Ecosol is the stormwater treatment product brand of Urban Asset Solutions Pty Ltd, a privately-held Australian company headquartered in Pooraka, South Australia. Founded in 1996 and integrated into Urban Asset Solutions in 2018, Ecosol designs, manufactures, and supplies a catalog of award-winning stormwater treatment and filtration products targeting urban developers, planners, and infrastructure practitioners in Australia and internationally. The product portfolio is organized as a treatment-train spanning primary gross pollutant capture (Litter Basket, Net Tech, Trash Rack, GPT, Silt Arrestor, Storm Pit Class 1), secondary particle removal (Sand Filter, Storm Pit Class 2), tertiary polishing (Bio Filter, Cartridge Filter), plus adjacent offerings in rainwater harvesting (Rain Tank), spill containment (Spill Containment Unit), and engineered-to-order bespoke solutions.
The underlying technology is mechanical and process-engineering based — physical filtration, sedimentation, and biological treatment — rather than software- or data-driven. Product performance is validated through independent field testing commissioned with EngTest, the commercial arm of the University of Adelaide, conducted under the Stormwater Quality Improvement Device Evaluation Protocol (Field Monitoring). This third-party validation is the primary technical credibility mechanism, enabling specification into projects that must comply with Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) guidelines and Best Practice Environmental Management requirements.
Ecosol generates revenue through two streams: hardware sales of standardized products, and professional services revenue from site-specific, turnkey stormwater treatment and harvesting solutions with after-sales support. Pricing is quote-based rather than published, consistent with project-driven B2B sales. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with no intermediary distributors; commercial engagement occurs via a 1300 phone number, shared email ([email protected]), and a lead-capture website form. The company employs 11-50 staff, operates from a single South Australia base, and discloses no funding rounds, external investors, or financial metrics.
