Water recycling system Hydraloop wins UN WIPO Global Award
World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the agency of the United Nations, has selected NWP member Hydraloop as winner of the WIPO Global Awards Programme. Hydraloop was elected because it has developed unique, patented technology that can substantially reduce water consumption worldwide, realising a huge social impact.
This UN award is a great recognition of the value of our intellectual property and the impact Hydraloop has in the fight against the rapidly growing global shortage of clean water. Our no filters, membranes, chemical technology and proprietary IP are unique and change the market. With Hydraloop, anyone - anywhere in the world - can take action and save water

About WIPO Global Awards
The Global Awards programme is rooted in WIPO's mission to ensure a world where innovation and creativity are supported by intellectual property. WIPO's programme recognises the central role of innovative and creative activities of SMEs that leverage intellectual property rights to develop solutions that make a positive contribution, economically, socially and culturally. The prize is awarded based on successful commercialisation of IP and its positive impact on society.
The inaugural Global Awards, a group of seven eminent jurors from around the world selected five winners from among 272 submissions spanning 62 countries. Besides Hydraloop, the WIPO Global Awards programme also awarded prizes to Lucence of Singapore, Raycan from China, Shylon from China, and Japan-based Splink for their contributions to early cancer detection, improved medical imaging, energy-saving lighting and dementia diagnosis, respectively.
