US President Barack Obama visited the Sweden & Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm in 2013. During his visit, President Obama learnt about Sweden’s latest technological developments in the fields of energy, research and innovation. Petra Wadström, SOLVATTEN’s inventor, was given the opportunity to present her invention to the President and explain how it is used around the world to improve health, living conditions and help the environment.
Solvatten was established in 2006 in Stockholm, Sweden. The primary focus of the organization since then has been to produce and sell Solvatten to governmental and non-governmental partners around the world.
