Project Water

Hilco is delighted to offer for sale the business and assets of a well-established UK-based technology innovator dedicated to transforming water safety and compliance.

With a bold vision to make water systems smarter, safer, and fully connected, the company has developed and patented a portfolio of advanced technologies that address the growing global demand for health protection, environmental compliance, and digital transformation across sectors such as healthcare, housing, education, and infrastructure.

The company’s flagship innovation is a next-generation remote monitoring system designed to put water safety on autopilot. From stagnation and temperature fluctuations to the early detection of microbial risk, the platform identifies issues in real time – enabling automated flushing, secure data logging, and instant alerts. This technology is transforming how organisations manage water systems across healthcare, education, housing, commercial, and industrial settings – making compliance seamless and safety smarter than ever.

Business Highlights

• The company is strategically placed to capitalise on the growing demand for digital water safety and compliance solutions. With regulatory guidance and legislation tightening across multiple sectors, the digital compliance market is projected to experience significant growth over the next five years.
• Following extensive investment of c. £1.3m in the development of specialised hardware and software, the company now holds a robust portfolio of innovative, patented and patent-pending technologies. Whilst focus historically has been on product development, the business is now well primed for significant growth and taking advantage of the compelling product offering.
• The company has built a strong reputation within the water sector and is recognised for its industry-leading technology, having won multiple awards. This brand strength enhances market trust and supports accelerated adoption. In addition, it has strong relationships with several major compliance firms and high-profile industry partners, providing immediate opportunities for scale and substantial sales growth.
• The business is supported by a highly experienced team of six, including individuals with more than 30 years of specialist experience in the water industry. Their sector knowledge, technical capability, and established networks add considerable strategic value to any acquiring organisation.
• The company has a number of additional ground-breaking technologies already developed or in late-stage development. These products can be launched within the next 6–12 months, providing a clear and compelling growth trajectory.

Following a substantial period of investment in product development and technological innovation, the company is now seeking an acquirer with the capability and strategic alignment to support its next phase of growth. The objective is to fully realise the market opportunity while ensuring that the existing team benefits from the enhanced infrastructure, resources, and organisational environment necessary to continue their development and contribute to long-term success.
