Meet Uravulabs

Uravu Labs is a Bengaluru-based climate-tech company developing water-positive cooling and atmospheric water-generation systems. Its proprietary liquid-desiccant technology captures moisture from air and uses renewable or low-grade waste heat to produce freshwater. Its Clausius platform is designed for data centers and industrial facilities, combining atmospheric water production with thermal cooling to reduce dependence on external freshwater and conventional cooling infrastructure. Uravu also develops systems for industrial manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, commercial buildings and drinking-water applications. The company has commercialized its water-from-air technology, worked with industrial and beverage customers, and is expanding internationally through climate-tech programs in Abu Dhabi and other global markets.View more
