QUA-VAC B.V.
About
Qua-vac B.V., headquartered in Almere, the Netherlands, has designed and manufactured vacuum wastewater systems for over 50 years under CEO Ivar Quatfass. The company's flagship Vacuflow vacuum sewer system uses negative pressure to transport wastewater through sealed PVC or HDPE piping installed 80-120 cm below grade in a sawtooth profile, with collection chambers that operate pneumatically and mechanically without requiring electricity at individual property connections. The system employs a patented air-and-water venturi suction device to prevent hydrogen sulfide buildup and uses radar level measurement at the vacuum tank. The Vaculink online monitoring portal provides 24/7 access to operational data with SMS and email alerting, user-configurable dashboards, and real-time water level tracking across vacuum tanks and collection chambers. Qua-vac also manufactures vacuum toilets that reduce drinking water consumption by up to 80% per flush, saving approximately 8,000 liters per person per year, suitable for residential and commercial buildings. As the exclusive Benelux distributor for Evac, the company supplies maritime waste management systems including food waste disposers, shredders, wastewater treatment units, and vacuum toilets for river cruise vessels, commercial ships, yacht building, and naval applications. Qua-vac operates three divisions—Infra for built environments and islands, Building for residential and commercial projects, and Marine for shipping and defense—and holds ISO 9001, Kiwa, and VCA certifications across more than 650 installed projects worldwide.
