About Solution Group
Solution Group is a full-service, technology-driven water and wastewater management company. In short, we manage wastewater, but that’s just what we do. The “why” is much more important: to ensure facilities run efficiently, to ensure people and environments are safe.
Our Story
Solution Group was built from a family of brands committed to providing wastewater and environmental solutions across the US. As separate entities, including Aries Tek, Environmental Management Solutions, OptiClear Automation Systems, and Organic Solution Management, each served as a critical component of processing waste. Now, as Solution Group, we are a seamless ecosystem delivering high-quality wastewater solutions to support critical industrial wastewater treatment options.
Who We Are
Solution Group delivers operational programs along with chemical program management and technical expertise to some of the most demanding industrial wastewater operations across the US, including dairy processing, rendering plants, and food and beverage facilities.
Our team is a diverse group of water, environmental, health, and safety professionals who maintain a wide variety of certifications, licenses, and degrees. We’re committed to continual educational development to keep pace with the rapid evolution of regulatory and technical advancements.
