Water care for every building, everywhere

Complete, on-site water treatment with output as pure as rain.

Foss simplifies
on-site water reuse

Our Systems:

  • Treat and reuse grey and blackwater on-site
  • Produce stormwater-quality effluent
  • Multiply allowable residential density


Enabling sustainable and affordable housing development

With Foss, developers are no longer tied to areas with existing sewer systems, allowing for more flexible and cost-effective site selection.


Unlike traditional wastewater options like septic, our water care systems are compact enough to fit inside of the structure they serve and produce clean, stormwater-quality effluent.

Retrofit-ready, drop-in-place water treatment for any setting

Foss water care systems are designed for quick installation that seamlessly integrates into both existing and new builds in less than a day.

Our systems provide a reliable solution for any property type facing water challenges due to outdated or overburdened sanitation systems or evolving ecological standards.

Compact digestion + distillation

Our dual-flow system uses 2 units: a blackwater unit handles the toughest contaminants up front and a greywater unit filters all the water in the system. Together, they run with superior energy efficiency and extend filter life.

1. Decomposition

In the blackwater unit, specialized microbes decompose hazardous biosolids as they would in healthy soil.

2. Evaporation & Condensation

Then, this treated blackwater is superheated into vapor, like clouds. The result is pure water from condensation, just like rain.

3. Filtration

The greywater unit filters both the pre-cleaned blackwater and the greywater from all other drains.

Safer, smarter water solutions for all of us

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) #11  good health and well-being

Good Health & Well-Being

Foss provides safe and affordable sanitation for remote and underserved communities without relying on any new public sewer infrastructure, closely aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goals 3,6, and 11.

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) #6 clean water and sanitation

Clean Water & Sanitation

1.4 million people die each year because of inadequate sanitation conditions. Access to only contaminated water makes keeping healthy personal hygiene impossible, even in hospitals. This causes widespread human suffering, the transmission of preventable diseases, and undue loss of life. Foss's decentralized, modular solution can bring safe water and sanitation sooner to places that need them.

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) #11 sustainable cities and communities

Sustainable Cities & Communities

By scaling building by building, we can lay the foundation for a resilient and adaptable water care system that delivers clean water to those most in need. With decentralized, modular water treatment and reuse systems, we aim to create a “clean water ripple effect” where each installation leads to improving water access and health across entire communities.



Foss is leading a new wave of water management solutions

For building developers and outdated infrastructure

  • Expands land development opportunities by relieving reliance on existing sewer systems and/or leach fields
  • Delivers quick, compact on-site treatment and reuse of both greywater and blackwater

  • Seamlessly integrates with existing plumbing

  • Reduces energy and resource consumption by decentralizing water care and treatment
+

For the planet and our communities

  • Provides clean water and safe, affordable sanitation in remote and underserved regions, preventing diseases and saving lives
  • Protects ecosystems by breaking down waste that would otherwise lead to environmental contamination

  • Doubles water usage efficiency in any build, conserving water supplies
  • Reduces methane emissions by replacing traditional septic systems
