About Indra Water

The disruptive technology is making waves in Water Treatment and sustainability product segments.

• Water is on course to be scarcer than oil by 2030, with demand fast outstripping supply by over 40%. Water as a resource is under tremendous stress with groundwater and freshwater resources depleting at an alarming rate due to rapid urbanization and global warming, along with pollution from industries, societies and even agriculture, contaminating existing resources. New emerging contaminants and pathogens also pose a serious threat to the quality of water supplies as do the aging infrastructure being vulnerable to both accidental and deliberate contamination. This has forced regulators and consumers to progressively become more demanding.
• Solving these global water challenges is the backbone to innovation at INDRA. We are committed to providing a reliable, value added partnership to all our customers and partners thereby actively helping industries and societies meet increasing water demands, overcome scarcity challenges, enhance their environmental stewardship and comply with regulatory requirements thereby driving efficiency and collaboration.
• Compared to conventional solutions, Indra's technology requires 25 percent less energy to operate, saves 40 percent operating cost, and requires 85 percent less manpower to recover 99 percent wastewater, Indra is pioneering decentralised treatment of wastewater with its patented electrically-driven modular systems at the point of source. “Our solution recovers up to 99 percent of the water for reuse applications. We are the only broad-spectrum pollution removal process and can handle complex and difficult oxygen demanding pollutants, suspended and dissolved pollutants, oil and grease, pathogens, and heavy metals, among others,” says Nayak, co-founder and CEO.
