Do you skip your dip, surf or paddle when there’s a pollution alert? Or do you take the plunge, and risk getting sick?

That’s why we created Bactiquick - the world’s first handheld device to test water quality in an instant.

Bactiquick is portable, easy to use, and provides reliable results in just 15 minutes. It detects a wider range of bacteria than most water quality tests - including Salmonella, Leptospira, Vibrio and many others - to protect you and your family.

Water quality changes quickly – sometimes in a matter of hours – and traditional tests take 24+ hours to get results. In that time, people have either being exposed to high levels of bacteria or needlessly missed out on doing what they love.

With Bactiquick, you’ll know if the water you’re about to enjoy contains high or low levels of bacteria. And by logging the results in this app, you’ll be building a real-time picture of the state of our waters across the country. You can also share your test results, locations and order Test Kits through the app.

Whether you’re catching waves, swimming in rivers, or paddling with your kids, you deserve to know the risk before diving in.
