Water Kinetics is an innovative pipework manufacturing company based in Scotland, founded on the extensive experience of its directors. The company aims to be a global leader in low-energy, low-carbon water systems, significantly improving water safety in buildings and providing preventative measures against water-borne pathogens like Legionella. Their revolutionary pipe-within-a-pipe system, Eco-Duo, is designed to reduce costs, carbon footprint, energy usage, and installation times by up to 50%.
The Eco-Duo system is inspired by the heat-retention mechanisms found in nature, such as penguin vascular systems. This design ensures excellent temperature retention, keeping hot water hot and cold water cold, thereby reducing energy consumption and preventing the growth of harmful microorganisms. The system also eliminates dead legs, further enhancing water safety.
Water Kinetics is committed to sustainability, sourcing copper from companies that use high degrees of recyclable materials and ensuring all their materials and packaging are 100% recycled and recyclable. The company has received recognition and awards, including being winners of the CIBSE Building Performance Awards, National Technology Awards, Institute of Water (Scotland) awards, and National Building and Construction Awards. They have also been finalists in the Building Controls Industry Association, Better Society Energy Awards, and Construction News Awards.
