1. 19 Years of Focus on UV Water Disinfection
Founded in 2006, Agua Topone has exported over 2 million UV systems to more than 80 countries worldwide. The company has always placed customer needs at the center, actively participates in international exhibitions, listens to market feedback, and continuously invests in R&D.
With sharp industry insights, Agua Topone is accelerating the shift from traditional mercury lamp systems to more environmentally friendly and efficient UVC LED systems.
2. UVC LED Trends and Challenges
Jason Ma, Marketing Director of Agua Topone, emphasizes:
"If a company doesn't innovate, it will be left behind."
Trends:
·UVC LED is considered a core technology for the future of disinfection.
· It is green and eco-friendly, containing no mercury, producing no by-products, and not altering the taste or odor of water.
·Supports instant on/off usage, avoids continuous heating, and extends service life.
·Over the next 3–5 years, UVC LED will be widely applied in household water purification, coffee machines, vending machines, coolers, as well as air and surface disinfection.
Challenges:
·Compared to traditional mercury lamps, UVC LEDs still lag in wall plug efficiency (WPE).
·Significant R&D investment is required to continuously improve technical performance.
·Market education and customer adoption will take time.
Agua Topone is addressing these challenges through third-party certifications (CE, RoHS, SGS, etc.) and overseas testing to validate and enhance product reliability, thereby building customer trust.
3. Product Portfolio: From Household to Whole-House Disinfection
Agua Topone has launched a range of UVC LED water treatment products:
·Small flow products: 0.5–12 GPM, suitable for kitchen sinks and under-sink water purifiers.
·Best-selling model: 12 GPM whole-house UVC LED system, released in June 2025, which quickly gained significant attention from overseas customers.
·Modular design: Replaceable UVC LED modules similar to traditional mercury lamps, reducing maintenance costs.
· Smart features: Countdown and alarm notifications remind users to replace LED modules on time.
With the advantages of energy efficiency, eco-friendliness, ease of maintenance, and smart design, these products are gradually forming differentiated competitiveness in overseas markets.
4. Future Vision: From Residential to Commercial and Industrial
Jason Ma repeatedly emphasizes that Agua Topone's goal is not limited to household UVC LED devices:
·Short-term goal: Continue enriching the household and small commercial product lines to help customers quickly switch to UVC LED technology.
·Mid-term goal: Expand into commercial markets, such as coffee shops, water dispensers.
·Long-term vision: Enter medical, industrial, and municipal water treatment sectors, driving the industry toward a greener and more sustainable future.
Agua Topone believes that UVC LED will achieve widespread adoption in the next 5–10 years, similar to how electric vehicles are replacing fuel-powered cars.
Conclusion
Since 2006, innovation-driven development has been at the core of Agua Topone. Facing challenges, the company continues to invest in R&D and market testing to ensure products are not only reliable but also meet global users' demands for safe and healthy water.
As Jason Ma summarizes:
"If you don't innovate, you just lag behind."
On the path of UVC LED, Agua Topone will continue to lead the industry, collaborating with global partners to promote sustainable development in water treatment.
