Company Details

Laidenford Limited was founded in August 2021 by a highly enthusiastic technology interest group comprising experienced technopreneurs and globally-leading university researchers. The core interest of this startup is to promote and engage in the R&D and business of fog/moisture harvesting technology.

Laidenford’s core interest is to promote and engage in the R&D and business activities that can potentially solve the problem of freshwater storage and remote and mobile farming, particularly in low humidity areas. We aim to diversify freshwater sources for the world by designing a decentralised, modularised, low-cost and low energy consumption freshwater production system. Atmospheric water (consisting of clouds, fog and water vapour) is a huge, natural and renewable reservoir of freshwater, estimated to be equivalent to 5.2 billion Olympic- sized pools (ca.12,900 km3), which opens up a new way for us to obtain water and alleviate the water shortage crisis. Leidenford Water Generator (LWG) combines high-performance composite sorbent and energy-efficient technique running fast sorption and desorption kinetics in multiple cycles per day. Our modularised and multi-cyclic LWG in the form of an array network is predicted to produce at least 100 litres of freshwater per day.
