The Future of Water: A Collective Responsibility – Member News

World Water Day 2025 was a reminder if one was needed, that ensuring a sustainable water future is not just the job of utilities and regulators—it’s a shared responsibility. Climate change, population growth, and aging infrastructure are putting increasing pressure on our water systems. Now, more than ever, collaboration across industries, governments, and communities is vital to safeguarding this essential resource.

At Groundbreaker Systems, we believe innovation in water management must go beyond traditional solutions. While many water suppliers are adopting smart meters to monitor usage and manage consumer expectations, there is an opportunity to go even further. Our patented LoFlo device, when installed alone or alongside a smart or traditional water meter, has a proven track record of reducing water consumption by up to 12%—without affecting static water pressure or heating systems.

A derivative of our patented NRv2 product, LoFlo regulates water flow using a “smart” non-return valve, offering whole-site protection against backflow and contamination while also supporting sustainability goals. Fully accredited for use with potable water and tested to withstand static water pressures of over 25 bar, it is the most cost-effective and efficient solution for reducing per capita consumption and achieving water neutrality.

By working together—utilities, developers, policymakers, and technology providers—we can implement smarter, more sustainable solutions that don’t just measure water use but actively reduce it. And let’s not forget that saving water also means saving energy and money.

Not just on World Water Day but every day we encourage every stakeholder to ask: What more can we do together to secure a water-resilient future?
