About us
ALLIN CAPITAL INC. grew out of a water treatment engineering business founded in Shanxi Province, China, in 2007, which designed and built mine water treatment and filtration systems. We set up in Ontario in 2024 to bring that experience, and its direct relationships with major activated carbon manufacturers, to Canadian water utilities.
Carbon change-outs
Besides supplying carbon, we offer change-outs of spent granular or pelletized carbon in filters, contactors and odour control vessels, carried out with partner field technicians, and arrange disposal or reactivation of the spent media.
