After many clinical trials, domestic water ionizers was finally introduced in Japan in January 1966 and expanded to Korea in early 1970.

After stringent testing by an FDA-approved independent laboratory in Los Angeles, water ionizers were introduced into the US market in early 1985. Since then, the water ionizer has become so popular amongst Americans that it still spreads like wildfire across the United States and the globe.
