What is Firewall™?
Until now, advanced POU water dispensers have utilised UV technology to kill bacteria and
pathogens in the tank. Whilst very effective, this was not designed to eliminate back
contamination via the tap from outside the machine affecting the water dispensed
In 2010, Waterlogic unveiled a
technology to address this issue
which delivers a level of water
purification previously unseen
in POU
In the time taken for the water to
flow through the spiral (0.8 seconds)
the water dispensed is 99.9999% pure

Dr. Gerba – renowned expert, currently testing Firewall against other taps and specifically
the efficacy of Firewall against the WHO standard for “Highly Protective Waters” (results to
go public later in 2013)
o
Initial report states that: “The Waterlogic WL 250 easily met the removal requirements for the USEPA
and NSF for a microbiological water purifier, and the WHO requirements for “protective”.”
“…all of the oocysts observed in the effluent were inactivated achieving the WHO classification of
the system as “highly protective”.”
Charles P. Gerba, Ph.D. is an internationally recognized environmental microbiologist and Professor of Environmental Microbiology in the Departments of Microbiology and Immunology, and Soil,
Water and Environmental Science, at the University of Arizona Dr. Gerba has authored more than 400 articles including several text books in environmental microbiology and pollution science He is
a member of the U.S. EPA's Science Advisory Board Committees on Drinking Water and Research Strategies

to $19.5m (2012: $13.8m)
o
This was achieved through:
o Launching new products based on its proprietary Firewall technology
o Achieving organic growth of 3.5%
o Acquisitions, including CCWG in Australia, Aqua Cure in Scotland and Eauwell in
Germany
o Securing consumer distribution agreements with ALCONIX in Japan and an Ecommerce launch with Costco in Canada
o Adding commercial distribution channels in Bulgaria and Italy and entering new
territories in Lithuania and Chile, with International Trading revenue growing by
13.9%
