Weise Water Systems GmbH has grown to become newterra GmbH

In 2012, newterra GmbH was created when Weise Water Systems GmbH was renamed; this move sealed the complete takeover of the company by the newterra group. Weise Water Systems was founded in 2001 by Dipl.-Ing. Ulrich Weise with the support of private investors.

Since 1997 - the MicroClear^® Filter Patented throughout Europe

The development of the MicroClear^® filter, protected by patents throughout Europe, which began with the first model in 1997, has been continuously driven forward ever since. A great number of theses have been written and collaborative projects carried out with the University of Applied Sciences in Giessen / Friedberg, to test the filter in the most diverse of applications and under all possible operating conditions.

Contribution to the Puratreat Project

The MicroClear^® filter has also successfully demonstrated its effectiveness in the Puratreat Project, which was funded by the EU. In countless industrial applications supporting up to 50,000 persons and in decentralized facilities, the MicroClear^® filter has consistently proven since then that even with a minimal use of chemicals and energy, germ-free, clean service water can be produced, suitable for a variety of applications.

Award of the Environmental Prize

The outstanding innovation inherent in the MicroClear^® system was highlighted by the award of the Environmental Prize of the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment and Energy in 2002.
In 2007, the company’s impressive track record led to the participation of Leonardo Venture GmbH & Co KG aA, Mannheim.

Our New Home

In the years that followed, sales increased continuously. By 2012 the old site had finally become too cramped, so the company moved into a modern building on a neighbouring property that will meet planned production increases for the next few years.
