Lechintech: Helping South Africa Improve Water Quality
Water is one of our most precious resources, and ensuring its quality is essential for both communities and the environment. Lechintech, a South African company specialising in chemical dosing control, is playing a vital role in improving water treatment processes.
Founded in 1987, Lechintech develops automated systems that help water treatment plants and industries measure and control the chemicals used in water purification. By reducing the need for manual testing, these systems improve efficiency, accuracy, and water safety.
Supporting Safe and Sustainable Water Treatment
Lechintech's technology is already used in South Africa and internationally, including in Malaysia, Australia, and Brazil. More local water treatment facilities are also adopting their solutions, as they help reduce chemical waste, improve water quality, and support environmental sustainability.
The company also works with paper manufacturing plants to improve chemical use in industrial processes, helping to create more efficient and environmentally responsible production methods.
Investing in Local Skills and Growth
Based in KwaZulu-Natal, Lechintech is committed to creating local jobs and training skilled professionals. Their team, under the direction of Bradley Peacock, includes experts in engineering, chemistry, and water management, all working towards a common goal: ensuring clean and safe water for communities.
To expand further, the company is looking to grow its workforce and invest in new technology, which will help boost employment and innovation in South Africa.
A Proudly South African Company with a Global Reach
Lechintech’s expertise is recognised worldwide. Recently, they supplied 30 advanced water treatment devices to Malaysia in just three months, highlighting their efficiency and dedication to water safety.
As more industries shift to modern water treatment solutions, Lechintech is at the forefront, helping South Africa and other countries improve water quality, reduce waste, and protect the environment.
Whether it’s for drinking water, wastewater treatment, or industrial use, Lechintech’s work ensures that communities and businesses have access to the best possible water management solutions—today and for the future.
