MAIDENHEAD, UK, 17 JULY 2019 – Waterlogic, a leading global designer, manufacturer, distributor and service provider of purified drinking water dispensers, is pleased to announce that it has acquired 12 companies in the last seven months.

Waterlogic’s recent acquisition activity is a reflection of its position as a global leader in the fragmented market for workplace hydration, as well as the natural acquiror for high-quality providers of point-of-use water dispensers. The 12 acquisitions have enabled the company to enter new direct markets in Canada and Belgium as well as increase customer density and build capabilities in already established markets in the US, Australia and Western Europe.

“M&A offers major growth opportunities for Waterlogic as well as benefits for our customers, and we continue to maintain a healthy pipeline of acquisitions to augment organic growth in all our markets” explains Jeremy Ben-David, Group CEO Waterlogic.

In the US and Australia, the acquisitions of AWS South BendLeslie WaterMy Better Water and Big Wet’s point-of-use business further consolidate Waterlogic’s market-leading presence in the company’s key territories. Whilst the acquisitions of Pure Life and Just Pure in Canada and Pure Services in Belgium establish Waterlogic with a direct presence for the first time in these important markets.

These latest acquisitions help us achieve our ambition to lead the market with a range of environmentally sustainable solutions that provide more people around the world with access to high-quality drinking water,” continues Jeremy Ben-David.

The expansion of Waterlogic’s customer base and service network significantly strengthens the company’s position as the leading total water solutions provider of point-of-use dispensers, under-counter dispensers and specialty restaurant and hospitality solutions globally.

Waterlogic was acquired in January 2015 by funds managed by Castik Capital, the European private equity investor. These are the most recent acquisitions as part of the company’s buy and build strategy since the acquisition by Castik, and following substantial acquisitions in the US, UK, Australia, Germany, France, Spain, Central and Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia.
