The world is running out of fresh water. This will be one of the defining challenges in the next decade, affecting not just livelihoods, but every industry that depends on water. India itself has 3% of the world's groundwater resources, and 18% of the world's population. Water is our most valuable resource, and we need to secure its future.
Heavy industries - like steel, textiles, FMCG, mining - not only uses millions of litres of water, but also generate extremely contaminated wastewater on a daily basis. Indra Water has built one of the strongest platforms to treat the dirtiest of industrial wastewater, enabling re-use and safe discharge at scale.
Indra Water is a wastewater-treatment company that builds decentralised, modular systems built around electrocoagulation — performing six treatment steps in a single reactor, versus the nine-process industry standard. It eliminates hard-to-treat contaminants by generating oxidants in situ, is chemical-lean, and recovers up to ~99% of water for reuse across industries like Steel, Textiles, FMCG, Hospitality, and other industries.
Compared to conventional treatment plants, Indra can be deployed 2–3x faster while delivering up to 80% smaller footprint, 70% less sludge generation, and high water recovery with minimal chemical use. Its modular architecture enables reliable operation, easy scalability and effective handling of fluctuating wastewater conditions.
