Our story
It all began over half a century ago… 60 years in fact. We’ve grown from humble beginnings of a one-man-band in 1964
to where we are today – part of one of the world’s most respected pioneers in water treatment.
A sweet start
Our very first project back in the 60s and the catalyst for things to come, was to resolve the hard water issues faced by a local British Sugar factory in Bury St Edmunds.
Back then, the processing of sugar beet was nowhere near as efficient as it is now, using an incredible amount of hot water. But being hard water, it took its toll on both the end product and the equipment. We’re all familiar with limescale in our kettles, just imagine that on an industrial scale!

Blowing our trumpet
Through the decades, our reputation as the UK experts in water softening grew and grew. With engineering excellence and a pioneering spirit at our heart, we were continually improving our products to make them perform better, faster and more efficiently, and expanded into specialist filters and purifiers too. Our products can be found everywhere from LegoLand to Sandringham and some of the Premier League football stadiums.
It wasn’t long before our position as the ‘installer’s product of choice’ was firmly set. On the back of our success, 2018 saw us become part of Culligan International, the US-based water treatment company active in more than 90 countries across the globe.

Treating you better
People buy from people. Whether you’re a homeowner, an installer or the head of a commercial enterprise, you want to know you’re talking to people that actually know a thing or two about the products they’re selling.
We don’t operate faceless call centres. When you call Monarch Water you talk to one of our Norfolk-based team – our own home-grown, Monarch Water experts and aftercare advisors who are on hand to help you. We have our own in-house service engineers too, all living and breathing our products every day.

A better future
Our mission is to develop water treatment solutions that lower carbon emissions for all of us – using less water and energy, conserving our natural resources, improving efficiency and saving you money.
The more people who fit a Monarch Water softener, the longer their taps, showers and appliances will last, and the more people who fit a Monarch Water filter or purifier for delicious drinking water on tap, the better their wellbeing will be and the better our world will be with fewer single-use plastic water bottles in it.
Let’s strive for better together.
