Kemira Acquires The Business Of Clear Water Technologies, LLC

Kemira, a global leader in sustainable chemical solutions for water-intensive industries, has completed the acquisition of the business and related assets of Clear Water Technologies, LLC, a privately-owned company based in California, USA. The transaction strengthens Kemira’s position in North America and supports its growth in industrial water treatment services – a sector growing faster than traditional water treatment markets.

The transaction includes Clear Water Technologies’ service operations, customer relationships and related assets. Clear Water Technologies provides boiler & cooling tower services to light industrial customers in California. The business’s 2025 revenue slightly exceeded USD 3 million, and it employs 12 people. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.

“This acquisition enhances our ability to deliver more value to customers by combining Clear Water Technologies’ service expertise with Kemira’s chemical applications,” said Tuija Pohjolainen-Hiltunen, EVP, Water Solutions. “It’s the second acquisition since our purchase of Water Engineering, Inc., which has provided us with a solid platform for organic and inorganic growth in industrial water treatment services in North America.”

The acquired business will be integrated into Kemira’s Water Solutions unit and operations will continue from the current location.
