Cistermiser, one of the UK’s leading providers of water and energy saving management solutions, has welcomed the findings of the Independent Water Commission and the Government’s commitment to fundamental reform of the water sector, including the replacement of Ofwat with a new integrated regulator.
“We support this report and its focus on the pressing challenges facing the water industry – from leakage and pollution to long-term supply resilience,” says Richard Braid, Managing Director at Cistermiser.
“It rightly recognises the need for coordinated action from regulators, water companies, suppliers, manufacturers and consumers, while building on the ambition of the 2038 and 2050 sustainability targets.”
The report highlights the importance of smarter data use and more widespread metering – areas where Cistermiser’s water management technologies play a vital role.
Richard continues: “Solutions that identify inefficiencies, detect leaks early and support responsible water use will be central to the sector’s future. Our intelligent washroom controls and flow monitoring systems are already helping non-domestic buildings – from hospitals to universities – minimise water waste and support sustainability goals.”
While the report focuses primarily on household supply and consumer protections, Cistermiser stresses that non-domestic buildings must not be overlooked.
Richard concludes: “The principles of water efficiency, smarter infrastructure and long-term planning apply just as strongly in commercial and public buildings. We’re committed to supporting the sector as it enters a new era of collaboration and accountability.”
Cistermiser looks forward to working with the incoming regulator, utilities and industry bodies to ensure non-domestic water efficiency remains firmly on the agenda.
