BWT supplier in Romania
Industrial water treatment and softening systems
Founded in 1990 · Headquarters: Mondsee, Austria
Who is BWT and what does it make?
BWT is an Austrian manufacturer of water treatment systems, founded in 1990, headquartered in Mondsee, with about 6,500 employees worldwide. The range covers water softening, filtration and reverse osmosis for drinking water, swimming pool water treatment and mineralisation systems, plus solutions for water used in pharmaceutical and biotechnology processes. From the BWT portfolio we can quote both equipment for small installations and components for industrial water treatment systems.
BWT covers an unusually wide range of applications for a single manufacturer — from household water softeners and under-sink filters to water for injection (Water for Injection) systems used in the pharmaceutical industry, where water purity must meet strict process standards. The industrial segment includes membrane technologies also used in related applications, such as fuel cells. This coverage makes BWT a supplier we can approach both for a simple water hardness problem and for a more specialised technical requirement in the pharma or hotel industry.
For customers in Romania, BWT makes sense for installations that combine the need for quality drinking water with technical process requirements — hotels, food or pharmaceutical production units, office buildings with their own hydration systems — and less as a simple spare part for an isolated water softener.
What do we supply from the BWT range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Water Softening Systems | Water softeners that reduce water hardness by ion exchange, used in both household installations and commercial buildings where hard water would affect boilers, pipes or washing equipment. They reduce limescale deposits and extend the service life of the building's thermal and sanitary installations. |
| Filtration and Reverse Osmosis for Drinking Water | Under-sink filtration systems and reverse osmosis units for drinking water, with periodically replaceable filter cartridges. Used where mains water needs an additional purification stage before consumption, in office buildings, hotels or commercial spaces. |
| Water Mineralisation Systems | Mineralisation systems for treated water, which adjust the mineral composition after filtration for a better taste of drinking water. They are installed after the filtration or reverse osmosis stage, in installations where the perceived quality of tap water matters to end users. |
| Water for Injection (WFI) and Pharma Solutions | Systems for producing water for injection and high-purity process water, used in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries where water quality standards are strictly regulated. A niche application, technically different from the drinking water systems in BWT's general portfolio. |

How do we supply BWT in Romania?
For BWT, we confirm the exact availability in the quotation; we follow the technical documentation of the Austrian manufacturer and the confirmation from the local BWT team. BWT systems are brought in to order, through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks from order confirmation. For a correct quotation we need the flow rate required, the hardness of the source water and the exact application — drinking, process or pharmaceutical. We do not promise permanent availability from stock for cartridges or replacement components and we check availability for each request.
The configuration and commissioning of BWT systems for pharmaceutical process water are carried out outside our offer.
Frequently asked questions about BWT
What is the BWT Perla system and how does it differ from Perla One?
BWT Perla is a softening system with two ion exchange columns, which provides softened water continuously even while one column is regenerating. Perla One is a Simplex softener, with a single ion exchange column, unlike Perla, which has two columns; we confirm the differences in peak flow and installation space from the datasheet of the model.
What is OSMOTRON from BWT and what is it used for?
OSMOTRON is a standardised, compact system for producing purified water, which combines softening, reverse osmosis and electrodeionisation in a single installation. It is used mainly by pharmaceutical and cosmetics companies that need purified water to industry quality standards. Over a thousand units operate worldwide.
Do you supply BWT equipment in Romania?
Yes, we source BWT softening systems and purified water equipment on request, without stock built up in advance for this range. On order, usually 1–4 weeks, depending on the model. We recommend stating the local water hardness and the flow rate required for correct sizing of the system.
What do I need to provide for a BWT softening system quotation?
The hardness of the source water, expressed in German or French degrees, the number of people in the household and the peak flow required at the taps are important. For commercial buildings the consumption schedule also matters, as it influences the choice of model from the Perla range. The space available for installation and the mains pressure complete the data needed for a correct quotation.
How do I request a BWT quotation?
Send the BWT code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
