History[edit]

Solerex Water Technologies Inc., formerly part of a hotel interior design company since 1986, established itself as a separate organization in 1990. Since its inception it began focusing on marketing its bottled water brand "Crystal Clear."[2]

Crystal Clear proved to be successful utilizing reverse osmosis for water purification. It began expanding as a water refilling station franchise in 1997 and grew to be the second most extensive water refilling station network in the Philippines.[3] Growing to over 2,500 franchise stores and expanding to reach other markets in Indonesia and Malaysia.[4]

In September 2012, Solerex Water Technologies tied up with Sierra Leone company Peninsular Innovative Group to launch a Crystal Clear Water location in Freetown.[5][6]
