Our core team of 6 engineers and scientists, most of which have been with the company since “day one”, is entirely committed to water treatment and drinking water production.

SolarSpring systems can be found all over the world and are built at our company venue the “Solarhaus” in Freiburg, Germany.

We cooperate and network internationally with smart and creative individuals, but since we value the preservation of resources and local partnerships most of our suppliers are regional.

As a reward for our innovative ideas and developments we were awarded the “Land of Ideas” prize in 2012 and the “Technology-Transfer-Prize” in 2014

Kirtiraj Chavan

The Batsman

With a background in chemical engineering (VIT Pune, India) and after working for some years as a process design engineer, my transition to membrane distillation was very smooth and started with a Master Thesis for completion my M.Sc. programme „Process Engineering“ (Offenburg). I stayed on at SolarSpring and dove straight into research on the more “chemical” new applications for MD. I really like life in Freiburg but have noticed a strong lack of good street food and cricket.
