A world first in water testing

The world’s first real-time water quality test

Environmental water quality results in 15 minutes, not days

Bactiquick gives you lab-spec results at the water’s edge. This is the revolutionary 15-minute early-warning system for water utilities, citizen scientists and water users.

Traditional coastal and river water testing takes up to 72 hours. By the time you get a result, the water – and the risk to public health and local economies – has already moved on. 

Bactiquick changes that with a handheld device that’s easy to use, low cost and delivers rapid lab-spec results. Multi-award-winning and patented in 23 countries, Bactiquick is already trusted by UK water utilities, citizen scientists and recreational water users. They include 10 UK water companies who use it for real-time monitoring, with engagement from the Environment Agency and MPs.
