Accelerating the World’s Transition to Recycled Water
Radical and unabashedly transformative, CarboNet will change the way you think about industrial wastewater treatment.
Who We Are
CarboNet is a specialty chemicals company that works with the world’s leading industrial brands to clean and recycle their wastewater. Using unconventional chemistry, we move industries — and our planet — towards a cleaner, brighter future.
Based in Vancouver, Canada with strong roots in Texas, we’re determined to preserve and protect the freshwater resources around the world.
Water treatment? Chemical manufacturing? Technology? The industry we “belong” to may change depending on who you talk to. But one thing stays the same: We work hard, think unconventionally, and are on a mission to accelerate the world’s transition to recycled water.

Our Story
At the time CarboNet™ was founded, water treatment chemicals had seen little innovation in over 50 years. The dispersants used to remediate the likes of oil slicks typically did more harm to ecosystems and the environment than good. Therein lay both a problem and an opportunity too big to ignore.
First came CarboNet’s inventor, Mike Carlson, whose unconventional chemistry has led to the creation of water treatments that are a quantum leap in both efficacy and safety over their industry-standard counterparts. The resulting innovation, the NanoNet™ platform, has become the technical backbone of CarboNet™. Based on nanotechnology, the NanoNet platform is used to develop formulas that are able to remove contaminants from water like never before.
Today, CarboNet™ collaborates with companies across industries – from oil & gas, to mining and agriculture – to effectively clean and treat water while solving industry-specific challenges. It’s these quantifiable impacts and resulting resource conservation observed by our customers that inspire us everyday.
We believe CarboNet™ has the potential to change the world as we continue to radically transform how chemicals are developed, used, and impact our planet.
