Wateroam's History and reliable track record

Founded in 2014

Wateroam's three founders met as undergraduates at a water initiative programme in the National University of Singapore. Since then, they have brought impact to over 300,000 people in more than 43 countries.

With a common passion to work for a greater good, the co-founders came together to build a water filtration system that can help rural communities with no access to clean water. They called it the Fieldtrate Lite - which is made up of a membrane filter fixed to the base of a lightweight plastic bag. Upon graduation, the trio realised that the Fieldtrate Lite was more than just a water project, but an innovation that could improve many lives globally. This realisation led to the birth of a professionally-run social enterprise that pursues and reaches communities deprived of clean water. Through stringent tests and research over the years, Wateroam has produced new iterations of award-winning, patented water filtration systems - the ROAMfilter™ Plus and ROAMfilter™ Ultra. Both are designed for maximum filtration speed and quality, catered specifically for the needs of rural and disaster-hit areas
