Nanobubbles exist naturally in waves and waterfalls. Turning them into a dependable technology category took years of learning in the field—alongside the discipline required to commercialize an emerging science while the science itself was still evolving.
In a recent Product Mastery Now podcast episode, Christian Ference, Global Product Manager at Moleaer, joined host Chad McAllister to discuss what it takes to build innovation in a new category and deliver impact at scale. The conversation reflects Moleaer’s journey from early R&D to the world’s largest installed base of nanobubble systems, with 4,000+ deployments across 55+ countries.
Moleaer’s innovation approach was recognized through PDMA’s Outstanding Corporate Innovator program. The point isn’t the award—it’s what it represents: a repeatable way to turn new science into solutions that perform reliably in real systems.
Nanobubbles have a diameter of less than 200 nanometers in size; that’s about 2,500 times smaller than a grain of salt. While they naturally form in water sources like crashing waves and waterfalls, they can also be created through advanced technology, such as Moleaer nanobubble generators.
Moleaer’s focus has been making nanobubbles usable at scale—generating them reliably and applying them in ways that deliver measurable performance.
Because water sits at the center of so many operations, nanobubble technology has broad relevance. Today, Moleaer deployments support performance across:
One theme of the episode is that innovation is inherently messy—especially in cleantech and hardware. Moleaer uses a structured approach to bring clarity without slowing progress:
The takeaway: breakthrough outcomes require both learning speed and execution discipline.
A point Christian returns to throughout the episode is that technology alone isn’t enough. Real value comes from the teams who know how to apply the science to real operating constraints—so performance holds up outside the lab, across different systems, and over time.
That’s what turns “interesting science” into a dependable category, and what enables impact at scale.
