The people who flocked around Johann Grander in the beginnings of water revitalisation were not business people, but rather idealists and friends. All that Johann Grander once hoped for was nothing more than earning the investment money back. The number of users increased steadily.

The effect that Johann Grander found in water is used today in the most diverse places, from private uses to highly technical industrial cooling circuits.

So, GRANDER water has become an indispensable, daily companion to hundreds of thousands of users across the globe.

In 1978, the 8-time father gave up his career to dedicate himself exclusively to his research and experimentation. For the first time in his life, Johann Grander pondered becoming self-employed from his invention.

With no capital, but with a lot of motivation and love for his work, he founded the forerunner company of today?s GRANDER water reviatalisation. It was a hard and sacrificial time for the Grander family. Often enough, urgently needed measuring equipment had to be paid off laboriously. And the most important work tool, the microscope, was paid back over years. Thanks to strong family cohesion, they came through the financial straits. 

The progression of his life continued in a very colourful way; he became a truck driver, leased a petrol station and district politics was recommended to him. Johann Grander met a gardener named Inge through his sister Kathi. He fell in love and they married on 23 October 1954. Despite his difficult and time-consuming occupation, the family man Grander tried as much as possible to be with his wife and their 8 children. Family and cohesion were always important values in his life.  

Johann Grander was born on 24 April 1930, as the second of five children. The war ended his schooling early. At 13 years of age, the Nazi state government released him from school to fill in as a tractor driver in agriculture. The possibility of a later, higher education was thus taken away from him.
