The Global Leader in Solid Chemistry for Water Treatment
Our Story - Solid Chemistry
If you’re using solids, you are most likely using AP Tech solids. If you’re still using liquids, now is the time to consider making the switch. Achieve optimal water treatment results without shipping water or handling hazardous chemical drums.
Welcome to AP Tech, the pioneer and global leader in solid chemistry water treatment solutions. Established in 1999 by the innovative chemist Jim Heimert, the company embarked on a mission to transform the water treatment industry. Jim’s journey began in the 1970’s like many others in the field, focusing on utilizing liquid water treatment solutions for cooling, boiler, and closed loop systems. He soon realized a need for better solutions. His entrepreneurial and innovative spirit drove him to engineer solid chemistry – a safer and more efficient water treatment solution – and subsequently in 2002, he began manufacturing and selling to water treatment companies.
Our solid chemistry technology provides the same water treatment effectiveness as traditional liquid chemicals but in a form that eliminates unnecessary fillers and water. This ensures that only the essential chemistry is utilized, maximizing efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. Our products not only reduce the risks associated with transporting and handling hazardous liquid chemicals but also address the logistical challenges of shipping large drums or pails.
With over two decades of experience, AP Tech has become a trusted advisor and expert within the water treatment community. Today, we partner with over 200 water treatment professionals worldwide, serving more than 20,000 installations across North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Our comprehensive solutions are designed to meet the needs of diverse industries, including education, healthcare, manufacturing, and government services.
Our commitment to manufacturing safe, sustainable, and innovative chemistry earned us recognition on the Inc. 500/5000 list of fastest-growing privately held companies for five consecutive years. AP Tech was also a proud nominee for the EPA Presidential Green Chemistry Award in 2007 and 2010. These accolades reflect our dedication to providing chemical alternatives that safeguard both people and the planet.
To support our global operations, our headquarters and state-of-the-art manufacturing and research facilities are located in West Chester, Ohio, USA. We also have a presence in Europe, with a headquarters in Chester, England, and a distribution warehouse in Sandycroft, Deeside, Wales. Our products are further licensed for manufacturing in the Czech Republic and Brazil, ensuring we can meet the demands of our international clientele efficiently and sustainably.
