Our Mission

Deploying our technology to drive industrial performance and secure resilient water access globally.

Increase the drinking water supply on Earth.

SORBAIR Mission Statement

The Global Water Crisis

No Water - No Life

  • 2.2 Billion Suffer Water Stress

    1 in 4 people worldwide currently lack safely managed drinking water.

  • Growing Scarcity

    By 2050, up to 5.7 billion people could be living in areas where water is scarce for at least one month a year.

  • Critical Zones

    Southern Europe and the MENA region are forming a permanent belt of critical water stress.

The Technology Gap

High Cost & Uneven Access

  • Desalination is unsustainable

    Requires high energy input and creates a high environmental burden.

  • 150 million m³ of waste

    Flushed into the sea every single day as toxic brine waste product of deslaintion plants.

  • Inland regions left behind

    Low-income regions and areas far from the coast have no viable solutions. Today ~70% of global desalination capacity is located on the coast in the MENA region.

Our Solution

Performant & Sustainable Water Harvesting

  • Unlocking Passive Water Harvesting

    Our material releases water at just 60°C, enabling fully passive devices powered by simple solar heat.

  • No Performance Plateau

    Unlike incumbents, Hygrocarbon continues to absorb water at high humidity, ensuring maximum yield per harvesting cycle.

  • Resilient Supply

    A supply chain based on organic raw materials allows for low-cost, global deployment for water-stressed regions.
