Orenda Technologies, founded by our president Dick Kersey,
has been in the recreational water treatment business since
1990 with a specific focus on enzymes. Dick began his science
lessons in 1954 at Swarthmore College, and went on to serve
the United States Army as a Chemical, Biological & Radiological
Weapons specialist from 1958-1964. He has been a scientist
in one capacity or another ever since.
Our experience from a scientific perspective and our years of
working within the industry are our greatest credentials. Science
met pool-industry experience in 2005, when Harold Evans,
founder of The Pool Surgeon, was seeking answers to problems
in his repair business. The Pool Surgeon has been maintaining
pools in the Dallas area since 1982. At the advice of a major
pool-industry manufacturer, Harold approached Dick for
solutions to long-standing chemistry problems concerning
algae control. The exchange of knowledge that day would result
in the marriage of science and application that makes Orenda
Technologies stand out in the pool industry.
Orenda Technologies is changing the way we control algae,
stains, and scale with patent-pending solutions that have
exploded traditional practices. We provide quality,
prevention-driven, earth-friendly solutions with the pool
professional in mind. These products are sold exclusively in
partnership with Pool Corp. the largest publicly traded supplier
to pool professionals in the world. These products are only
available to the pool professionals and their customers.
The explosive growth of Orenda can be attributed to responsible
education of industry professionals in the use of non-toxic and
non-hazardous additives that prevent algae growth and staining
without harsh algaecides and toxic alternatives. We offer
bio-friendly solutions with science in harmony with nature.
Our mission is to educate the industry and be responsible in
part for improving water quality through knowledge and
responsible prevention science.
