About KnoWaterleak
The
KnoWaterleak project began in 2022 as a part of an initiative by Japan's Cabinet Office, focusing on advanced satellite remote sensing data for leak detection in water supply systems. Collaborating with Toyota City's water department, Tenchijin validated the effectiveness of this approach and has since begun offering services to municipalities, boasting over 60 contracts within just three years of service launch.
Despite the progress, aging water infrastructure remains a critical issue not only in Japan but globally. Tenchijin is committed to tackling these challenges on a worldwide scale, expanding its reach into ASEAN countries, India, and Europe while maintaining partnerships with local academic institutions and water service providers.
The upcoming exhibition and pitch at
SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026 will further enhance Tenchijin's role as a global leader in sustainable water resource management.
