What Is Ingénio and Its Mission?
Water, source of life, is a treasure, a divine gift… and Ingénio takes this seriously. Founded in 1999, Ingénio is the French leader and pioneer in ecological desembouers—devices designed to clean water naturally without chemicals. Their mission? Cleaner water for a greener planet. With products guaranteed for 10 years and manufactured in France through short circuits, Ingénio combines innovation and sustainability. They specialize in ecological water treatment devices that tackle problems like scaling, corrosion, and bacterial proliferation, all while reducing maintenance needs and energy consumption.
Main Benefits and Impressive Savings
The impact of Ingénio’s French-made devices is nothing short of remarkable. In 2024 alone, with 18,920 installations, the savings achieved include:
- 142 tons of chemical products avoided annually in HVAC installations
- 41,150 tons of fuel saved for heating and domestic hot water (ECS)
- 38,620 tons of gas conserved for heating and ECS
- 38 million plastic bottles spared from waste each year
- 886 tons of plastics not discarded annually
- 417,300 kilometers saved in transport emissions
- 14,440 tons of CO² emissions reduced
- 8,870 tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx) avoided
- 12,680 tons of sulfur dioxide (SO²) emissions cut
These figures highlight not just environmental benefits but also the real-world impact on energy bills and maintenance efforts.
Ecological and Socio-Responsible Solutions
Ingénio isn’t just about technology; it’s about values. The company is deeply committed to sustainable development and acts as a fully engaged partner in energy and water savings. Their approach prioritizes respect for people and the environment, fostering clear, authentic, and peaceful business relationships. Choosing Ingénio means opting for ecological and socio-responsible solutions that support the local economy, promote French know-how, and limit the negative effects of unethical globalization.
Innovative Water Treatment Technologies
Ingénio’s devices focus on several key processes: desembouling, de-scaling, decorroding, and vitalizing water. Their technology reduces micropollutants and bacterial proliferation, improves water turbidity and colorimetry, and lessens the risks of leaks and ruptures. Plus, it reduces corrosion in both soft and aggressive waters, resulting in cleaner, more assimilable effluents. The best part? These devices require no maintenance, no service, and zero consumables, making them highly efficient and user-friendly.
Supporting Local Economy and Ethical Manufacturing
Choosing Ingénio means embracing “Made in France” quality. This choice supports local employment and craftsmanship, ensuring that products are designed and manufactured with care and expertise. It also helps limit the environmental and social impacts of globalization by reducing transport distances and promoting ethical business practices. Ingénio’s commitment to short circuits in manufacturing is a testament to their dedication to sustainability and community well-being.
