Swedish Hydro Solutions offers unique solutions and technologies for the safe, efficient, and environmentally sustainable treatment of large volumes of water.

Our history
The company was founded in 2015 by Jakob Sjöberg and Anders Lindqvist. Based on 10 years of experience in the North American water treatment market, Jakob had developed technical solutions and content knowledge, as well as the first ideas for a viable business plan. Anders contributed with a wealth of Swedish market knowledge and many contacts in the Swedish market. This made a fast start-up of the company possible. In 2016, Jakob and Anders, together with the first employees, succeeded in getting the innovative solution prototypes approved and put into operation. Already by 2018, the company had taken a strong market position in delivering environmentally friendly and cost-effective mobile water treatment solutions to the Swedish market.
Swedish Hydro Solutions provides effective, robust and easy-to use treatment solutions. Our organization also possesses market leading knowledge on how to solve complex treatment problems, combined with a strong team of service technicians. The fact that our treatment technology is based around a safe and biodegradable treatment angent, called chitosan, positions us as an even more unique treatment solutions provider.

What we do
We treat dirty and contaminated drainage and stormwater from infrastructure and various construction projects (bridges, railways, and highways). Followed by tailored solutions for industrial stormwater, process water from the mining industry, as well as from quarries and gravel pits.
Our method is one of the most effective, simple, and cost-efficient solutions for treating large volumes of water. It is also completely environmentally friendly, using biodegradable agents and free from the harmful and environmentally hazardous substances found in other methods.
We enable sustainable change
One of the world’s most pressing environmental issues is polluted water, and the UN’s global goals in Agenda 2030 are crystal clear. Water is a fundamental resource needed for energy and food production. At the same time, clean water is scarce in many parts of the world.
Even in Sweden, where we have long been fortunate with abundant clean water, water management is becoming an increasing challenge. Protecting our water resources is more important than ever. Yet, until now, there have been no effective treatment methods for construction site water and stormwater in Sweden or Europe.
Swedish Hydro Solutions’ innovative solutions actively contribute to a better world and are reshaping environmental policy across Europe.
Innovation-driven company
We are driven by a strong desire to make a difference. Our goal is to find the best solutions for our customers—always commercially and technically viable. The key is innovation.
We focus on continuous product development: How can we make it better, simpler, more efficient, and safer? Through iteration, new technology, and customer feedback, we constantly improve our solutions.
Business development is a central part of our innovation work, allowing us to adapt to market changes and explore new business areas. With our own lab, we continuously develop new methods to tackle complex contaminants.
Our competitiveness lies in technology and expertise, and we systematically renew ourselves. Sustainability, the environment, and safety are always at the core of what we do.
How we approach innovation
We believe that innovation must be pursued methodically. Quickly finding a solution when a problem arises or waiting for inspiration is not enough. This is also not how we have developed market-leading technology.
At Swedish Hydro Solutions, we have allocated time, resources, facilities, and staff to innovation work. Today, we have three employees who work dedicatedly with development. We follow up, document, and drive the work forward. In this way, we are constantly reshaping ourselves based on what our customers and the market need.
Our ability to innovate is one of the characteristics that define us as a company. Simplifying, refining, and improving is simply part of our DNA.
