Research and development are key elements of the BIO-UV Group’s strategy.
BIO-UV Group, an innovative company for more than 35 years
Since its creation in 2000, BIO-UV Group has always developed innovative solutions and systems:
- Process for treating water in residential pools: From salt electrolysis to chlorine-free UV treatment and ozone.
- The destruction of chloramines: an essential element for commercial pools.
- Integrated and sophisticated solutions: for absolute respect for marine species in aquariums.
- Consistent, healthy water quality: for more responsible aquaculture and sustainable fish farming.
- Improving and securing industrial water quality: thanks to our cutting-edge technologies that do not require the addition of chemicals.
- High-performance solutions for municipal and domestic water treatment: to eliminate bacteria, viruses and micro-organisms.
- Compact solutions for wastewater treatment and recycling: remove all contaminants from wastewater before returning the water to its natural environment.
- Approved ballast water treatment solutions: suitable for all types of vessels.
Our design office
To meet the multiple challenges of water treatment, BIO-UV Group relies on its own Design Office, which brings together a pool of talented engineers and experts in their field. Our R&D teams, located in Lunel (for ultraviolet technology), Muret (for salt electrolysis expertise) and Glasgow (for ozone and AOP), are constantly developing ranges of solutions for treating, disinfecting, heating and regulating water, while making continuous improvements.
Their missions:
• identify and develop new scientific, technical and technological skills.
• create new products and solutions for our customers in the treatment of water and surfaces.
Computer assisted design and the calculation of fluid dynamics (CFD) are key assets, mastered and part of the day-to-day work of the engineering team in the creation of new product lines.
Our project partners
To respond to specific projects and bring out suitable solutions, BIO-UV Group permanently maintains partnerships with universities, laboratories and research centers.
Aqua-Valley Water Centre
BIO-UV Group is a partner member of the Pôle Eau Aqua-Valley, competitiveness cluster in global vocation based in Montpellier and bringing together stakeholders in the water sector in Occitanie. This organization supports its members in the various stages of their innovation project, providing them with the support of the large network of players and the positioning of this Pole.
BEMA 
The Ballast Water Equipment Manufacturers Association (BEMA) is an international organisation that unites manufacturers of ballast water treatment systems, such as BIO-SEA by BIO-UV Group. Its main objective is to represent and defend the common interests of the ballast water treatment industry, promoting transparency, exchange and innovation around this essential technology for protecting marine ecosystems.
