Who We Are

Based in Melbourne, Australia, Optimos Solutions was founded by Phil Krasnostein who has over 40 years’ experience in engineering and process industries, including several years in the highly regulated Australian urban water recycling sector.

We are assembling a portfolio of cutting-edge solutions aimed at helping to improve water security. We aim to provide the highest level of support to our municipal, commercial and industrial customers. In addition to outstanding products and services, our people and alliance partners bring vast experience and domain knowledge right across the entire water cycle.

How We Work

While our technologies are widely applicable and versatile, every application is different. In some applications, they are stand-alone solutions, in other applications they will form part of the solution in conjunction with other selected technologies. Optimos Solutions starts by working with our customers to ensure that we understand and fully define their requirements, and to configure the solution specifically for their needs. Optimos Solutions then manages the supply, installation, commissioning and handover of the system, and at the customer’s request, provides training.

Our Vision

To be the leading provider of advanced solutions for improved water security. We will provide the highest level of support to our municipal, commercial and industrial customers.
