Showersave is proud to be part of the Keystone Group
Showersave is an industry pioneer, becoming the first company to introduce innovative Wastewater Heat Recovery Systems to the UK. This was achieved in 2008, working with the BRE and independent consultants to establish the calculation methodology for WWHRS to be recognised in SAP. Since that date, the credibility and performance of our systems has grown and improved, in a large part thanks to the R&D and manufacturing facilities we have in Netherlands, Q-Blue BV.
Q-Blue was established in 2016 as a partnership between the existing management team and Showersave. It is now a leading innovator and manufacturer of Wastewater Heat Recovery Systems in Europe.
In 2023 Showersave, including Q-Blue, joined the Keystone Group, a company that shares its passion for providing innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry.
In just one year the partnership has evolved substantially, with an increased production capacity of 11 x that of 2023, with more to come. This has resulted in the only dedicated developer, manufacturer and distributor of Wastewater Heat Recovery Systems in UK. Showersave is proud to be part of the Keystone Group
