Veralto Acquires Alfaa UV to Grow Its Water Business
Veralto Corporation, a global provider of water and product quality solutions, has acquired Alfaa UV, an India-based ultraviolet water treatment company, for an undisclosed amount. The deal folds Alfaa UV's technology and commercial operations into Veralto's Trojan Technologies business, a unit built around UV-based water treatment.
Alfaa UV's Role in Industrial and Commercial Water Treatment
Alfaa UV makes ultraviolet water treatment systems for industrial and commercial customers, with a focus on the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and building services sectors. Its UV technology disinfects water without added chemicals, an approach often required where water quality rules are strict.
Growth Plans Across India and Asia-Pacific
Veralto said the acquisition strengthens its ability to serve industrial water customers in high-growth markets with treatment solutions built for local conditions. Alfaa UV's established presence in India gives Veralto a stronger footing in the country and room to expand its water treatment business more broadly across the Asia-Pacific region.
Veralto's Expanding Portfolio in Water Technology
The Alfaa UV deal follows Veralto's February 2025 agreement to acquire Austria-based AQUAFIDES, another UV water treatment company, for about $20 million, which extended its presence in Europe. Together, the two deals point to a steady push by Veralto to widen its UV disinfection offerings as demand grows for reliable, chemical-free water treatment in both established and emerging markets.
Veralto operates as a standalone water and product quality company after separating from Danaher Corporation in 2023, with Trojan Technologies serving as one of its core water-treatment brands. Industrial buyers in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and food and beverage increasingly favor UV disinfection because it avoids the chemical byproducts associated with chlorine-based treatment, a factor that has helped drive consolidation among UV equipment makers in recent years.
