Aqueous Technologies
Clean Matters

About Aqueous Technologies: Aqueous Technologies was established in 1992 in response to environmental regulations resulting from the implementation of the Montreal Protocol.

Aqueous Technologies designed and manufactured automatic defluxing systems, stencil cleaning equipment, and chemicals supporting the aforementioned products. In 1996, Aqueous Technologies purchased Zero Systems of Alpharetta GA. This acquisition allowed Aqueous Technologies to manufacture and sell the Zero-Ion ionic contamination tester. Aqueous Technologies provided bundled packages which included the defluxing system with the Zero-Ion, increasing sales past Zero System’s expectations.

Over the past secenteen years, Aqueous Technologies has expanded its product line while remaining true to its core competencies. Today, Aqueous Technologies offers defluxing systems (Trident Series, MicroJet Series, and HydroJet Series), stencil cleaning systems (StencilWasher Series), the Zero Ion G3 ionic contamination tester, and a line of defluxing and stencil cleaning chemicals including Vitrex, StencilWash, and a proprietary and exclusive Simple Green blend.

About sixty percent of Aqueous Technologies’ revenue is derived from North American sales, the balance from international efforts. Aqueous Technologies has over twenty contracted sales representatives in North America and even more distributors around the world. In 2007, Aqueous Technologies opened an office in the United Kingdom to better serve our sales and service efforts in Europe.

Aqueous Technologies has sold its products to thousands of customers in dozens of countries, on six continents.
