Tennant Company

In 2007, Tennant Company developed a version of water electrolysis technology, called blended stream electrolysis, that cleans using ordinary tap water. Tennant manufactures commercial cleaning equipment, is a leader in its industry and has been in business for more than 140 years. Beginning in late 2007, Tennant has offered this technology in its line of industrial and commercial floor scrubbers. They have branded the technology Orbio ec-H2O™, and in 2009 sold more than $50 million in ec-H2O™-equipped scrubbers. Activeion Cleaning Solutions licenses this technology from Tennant.

Since Tennant Company's first application of ec-H2O, its blended stream electrolysis cleaning technology, Tennant has formed an arm called Orbio Technologies to help it develop and market environmentally friendly technologies under the brand name of Orbio. Activeion was originally founded under license of ec-H2O, and worked jointly with Tennant in the development of an irreversible electroporation technology, branded Orbio-E™.
