Axius Water Operating Companies are Stronger Together Decreasing Nutrients and Increasing Business Growth, One Solution at a Time

Ask any water treatment facility or plant operator what it takes to deliver a successful solution for their water treatment system, and they’ll tell you it’s trust in their solutions partners.

Ask Chris McIntire, the CEO of Axius Water, what he and his acquisition team look for as they consider bringing a company into their stable of companies that make up Axius Water? And he’ll tell you they look for small- to medium-sized companies that have nurtured strong relationships with customers based on solutions expertise and trust.

So it’s no wonder there has been a genuine synergy between the Axius Water operating companies over the years; a synergy that facilitates an increase in business growth several times industry norms.

Stronger Together

The Axius Water leadership team understands the industry and recognizes how to go to market, but they rely on the strength of the operating companies to provide the relationships with the customer and the deep application knowledge to deliver the solutions. And the operating companies are stronger together, given their ability to leverage these relationships and the expertise from one operating company to the other. (see inset)

“Joining the Axius Water team has provided outstanding opportunities for Napier-Reid,” says Frank Li, longstanding leader and vice president at Napier-Reid. “Being able to take advantage of the relationships with the other operating companies, and knowing that we have full support from Axius Water behind us, has facilitated tremendous market presence and how we approach our business, that we really couldn’t do on our own. It’s really given us a leg-up to help drive growth, at a rate and level we had never experienced before.”

Tangible Impact

The tangible support that Axius Water provides to the operating companies includes best-in-class operational tools to support collaboration for scalable growth:

– standardized finance and IT systems and tools

– unified CRM and marketing tools

– tax and legal support

– sustainability and ESG goals based on industry best-practices

– greater financial stability

– funding for R&D initiatives

Taking advantage of this support, most operating companies have doubled or tripled in size within the first two years of joining the group – a tremendous track record. As Axius Water – they can deliver better and stronger solutions. And they are positioned to do so well into the future.
