Droople: Transforming Water Management Through Smart Technology

Droople: Transforming Water Management Through Smart Technology

Founded in 2018 by Ramzi Bouzerda , Droople | B-Corp?? is on a mission to revolutionize water management with smart IoT and AI solutions. Headquartered in Puidoux, Switzerland, the company is redefining how businesses and individuals monitor, manage, and conserve water. Inspired by the United Nations ’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Droople’s innovations help conserve water and energy while addressing critical environmental challenges.

Smart Technology for Smarter Water Management

At the heart of Droople’s innovation is its iLink device, a game-changing IoT sensor that enables precise, real-time monitoring of water usage. By connecting to Droople’s Water Intelligence Platform, the iLink captures data on flow rate, temperature, pressure, and conductivity from the point of entry to the point of use. This comprehensive data allows users to detect leaks, monitor consumption, and identify opportunities for energy and water savings.

Tailored for residential, commercial, and industrial applications, Droople’s system is ideal for water treatment manufacturers, hospitality providers, and facility managers. Its predictive maintenance capabilities also help prevent catastrophic asset failures, lowering operational costs while improving sustainability.

Addressing a Global Water Challenge

Water scarcity is a growing concern, with global consumption expected to increase by 55% by 2050. Compounding this issue is water waste, which accounts for billions of liters lost annually through inefficiencies like leaks and overuse. Droople addresses this problem by offering precise insights into water usage patterns, enabling smarter decisions for conservation.

With features like 20% water-energy savings, Droople’s platform provides actionable insights that reduce operational costs and environmental impact. Its integration with Building Management Systems (BMS) further allows facility managers to optimize water usage and improve compliance with sustainability standards like BREEAM and LEED.

Educational and Community Initiatives

Beyond technology, Droople is committed to raising awareness about water conservation. In collaboration with schools like the Robert Magnin School Group in Switzerland, Droople’s Smart Sanitation solution combines education with operational tools to promote water-saving habits. Students learn through gamification, with hygiene scores incentivizing proper handwashing and efficient water use. These initiatives have led to measurable water savings, including a 22% reduction in water consumption at pilot sites.

A Vision for the Future

With an expanding presence across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, Droople is positioned to become a global leader in sustainable water management. Its solutions align with SDG targets for clean water and sustainable cities, helping businesses and governments achieve their environmental goals.

As Droople continues to innovate, its mission remains clear: to empower people and businesses with tools to conserve water, reduce waste, and build a more sustainable future.
