Excel Water,
It’s All In The Name
At Excel Water, our mission is to live up to the name and deliver the highest level of products and services across each of our market sectors. We are passionate about purifying water and providing solutions for our customers; our knowledgeable engineers love the challenge of treating all types of water for our customers.
A growing business
We are a growing (initially family-run) business; our team extends to our larger family, so we do everything to help and support each other. We recruit new team members on attitude and those who have a “can-do” mindset.
Driven By Desire
85% of our customers have been with us since the company started in 1993, which is testament to the level of trust and reliability we have built with our customers.
Our customers are our business and we are driven by the desire to help them succeed in their mission. Only by doing this can we successfully build our business. We are in it for the long term; maintaining relationships with our customers and key suppliers is our number one priority. We aim to continue to build a sustainable business to support our customers and team for the future.

Ensuring your equipment is regularly maintained is key to ensuring smooth running, reducing any downtime and breakdowns.
There For You
We have dedicated account managers for each customer who know your site and equipment. We have regular account reviews with our customers so we can ensure that we are meeting your requirements and identifying any opportunities for improvement.
Emergency Response
We know that regular servicing and preventive maintenance of water treatment plant and equipment can avoid breakdowns.
Every customer is important to us, so we prioritise response times depending on need. If you have a critical process or our system is the only water you have available, we will get to you first.
