AQUATOOLS: the expert in point-of-use water hygiene

AQUATOOLS our history

AQUATOOLS, expert in water hygiene at the point-of-use, is a French company founded in 2006. The company specialises in the manufacture of anti-Legionella and all-germ point-of-use filters for healthcare facilities and non-medical public buildings (hotels, accommodation, campsites, etc.).
Within just a few years, investment in R&D and collaboration with scientific experts has allowed the brand to establish itself as a key player in the global point-of-use filter market. 
Today, the quality and performance of its point-of-use filters have made AQUATOOLS the French market leader and a major international protagonist - especially in the United States where the company opened a subsidiary in 2017 - and also in the UK, where a new subsidiary was opened in 2023.   
The story has only just begun...
