Inspired by an academic cooperation project with NASA and founded in 2012, we are an award-winning clean-tech startup based in Malmö, Sweden. Our innovative technology turns a few litres into all the water you want, lowering water and energy costs—by as much as 90% and 80%.
The technology is currently available in the Orbital Systems shower, the most wasteful of all domestic appliances. Which means a 10-minute shower costs 5 litres instead of 100. With fresh water scarcity affecting up to 2 billion people around the world, Orbital Systems is an idea whose time has come.
