The new facility allows the company to respond faster and more flexibly to rising demand for advanced membrane filters and to further strengthen bespoke OEM partnerships with leading customers

Aqua free, a leading provider of innovative drinking-water hygiene solutions, has successfully moved into its new, state-of-the-art facility in Lommel and has now also obtained ISO 9001 certification for the site. This marks a key milestone in the ongoing development of the new location: processes, responsibilities and quality standards have been audited and confirmed against an internationally recognised benchmark.

The site expansion enables Aqua free to strategically increase capacity in research and development as well as production. The new facility allows the company to respond faster and more flexibly to rising demand for advanced membrane filters and to further strengthen bespoke OEM partnerships with leading customers.

ISO 9001 is recognised worldwide as the standard for quality management. It demonstrates that an organisation systematically controls its operations, manages risks, ensures consistent and repeatable quality, and implements continuous improvement – an important trust anchor for customers and partners.

“Especially at a new site, independent confirmation is crucial,” says Martin Langer, Head of Quality Management at Aqua free. “The certification shows that Lommel operates to clear, effective standards, creating a stable foundation for scalable growth and dependable performance.”

Aqua free will continue to develop the management systems at both sites consistently, to sustainably strengthen quality, transparency and delivery capability.
