Climate change and demographic growth will double the water demand by 2030 (UN). More than 3.9 billion people may suffer from the lack of water by 2040 (OECD), especially those less well off.

To address that challenge, Marc Vergnet and Maxime Haudebourg created Mascara Renewable Water, a company specializing in innovative water treatment solutions with the use of renewable energy to produce affordable drinking water for everyone.

The first development phase resulted in the industrialization of OSMOSUN®, the world’s first product range of seawater desalination based on sunshine power only. OSMOSUN® offers, from Mascara patented technologies, solar desalination plants that run without battery, producing a daily capacity of 1 to 600 m3 of fresh drinking water.
