Aqua Optima Information

Aqua Optima is a unique water filtration system developed by Strix Ltd, a pioneering appliance technology company based on the Isle of Man. With a 50-year history of innovation, Strix developed the world's first fully integrated automatic kettle switch in 1981. In 1986 they invented a new control that gave birth to the world's first cordless kettle. In 1996, they launched the first 360° degree cordless connector. These innovations have set the international standard in domestic kettles and Strix's technology is used over one billion times every day, all over the world. Whilst remaining committed to improving water appliance technology, in 2000 Strix began to focus on improving and purifying tap water itself. Strix's engineers and scientists set about designing a water filter system that removed impurities, improved the overall look and taste of tap water and reduced sediments that caused limescale build up in kettles. To meet consumer needs they also wanted to ensure it was fast and performed consistently throughout the filter cartridge's lifetime. The result of this is the Aqua Optima water filtration system. Aqua Optima follows in Strix's long tradition of delivering bespoke technical solutions to solve problems with water appliances and water delivery.
