Providing sustainable chemistry for water treatment solutions

Improve the performance and safety of your facilities with the HYDREX range of water treatment chemicals

Hydrex

The HYDREX water treatment chemicals range includes both organic and inorganic chemicals formulated to meet the individual specifications of industrial customers.

Our Hydrex products optimise the entire water cycle, chemical consumption, and operating & maintenance costs. A line of green additives has been developed to reinforce the comprehensive Hydrex range. By minimizing the impact of our additives in the environment, we help our clients to comply with tight environmental regulations.

Green chemistry has been defined as "the utilization of a set of principles that reduces or eliminates the use of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products."

Designing effective and environmentally benign chemicals and chemical processes involve:

  • The use of non-toxic components
  • Improved efficiency
  • Reduced waste products
  • Improved safety with respect to handling and application

Aligned with the Veolia philosophy towards sustainable development, Hydrex is committed to reduce the impact of its products in the environment by:

  • Using natural based raw materials derived from renewable resources
  • Adopting less energy and materials intensive processes (carbon footprint reduction)
  • Creating alternative solutions to replace harmful chemicals commonly used on water treatment, or to eliminate chemicals where achievable
  • Developing non-toxic, biodegradable additives that are more environmentally friendly
  • Minimizing waste

Our Sustainable Approach

Greener Chemical Solutions

Greener Chemical Solutions

We carry out a carbon footprint assessment of our additives to evaluate the carbon emissions caused during their life-cycle. This analysis allows the qualification of the environmental impact of the Hydrex products.

  • Avoid the use of hazardous substances and reduce energy consumption.
  • Products designed for increased recycling and reuse.
  • Exclusion of harmful chemicals from the existing range where there are alternatives, replacing them with additives that are natural based, safer and more environmentally friendly.
  • Minimize chemical dependency
