Rapid absorption. Superior hydration. Maximum performance.
Aqualyte has been scientifically formulated to counter fluid loss through sweating and dehydration in hot and physically demanding workplaces. Mixed with water, it combines essential electrolytes and glucose for rapid rehydration to boost performance. At the same time, its mild, natural taste encourages frequent drinking to prevent productivity loss and cognitive decline, making the rehydration process comfortable and easy.
Aqualyte was developed by Maxisafe after years of research in the Australian mining industry investigating the effects of dehydration on underground miners. It has been formulated based on the findings of this research that looked at the composition of sweat, sweat rates, thermoregulation and their effects on health and performance.
Key advantages Aqualyte offers:
-
Fast Hydration / Absorption
Because it's hypotonic, it absorbs faster than some isotonic sports drinks or plain water. This is especially useful in situations of high sweat loss (work in heat, endurance sports) or when fluid replacement needs to be efficient.
-
Balanced Sugar + Calorie Load
Lower sugar than many “sports drink” style hydration solutions (fewer calories). Yet, having some carbohydrate (rather than being sugar-free) is beneficial: it helps co-transport of sodium and water, improving absorption.
-
Cost-Effective for Bulk Use
Because of the 800 g sachet making 20 L, it’s economical if you’re hydrating repeatedly (e.g., workers, teams). Bulk packs are available.
-
Gentle on the Stomach
Less acidic than many other drinks, which may reduce gastric discomfort. Mild natural flavour may also make it more palatable over long-term use.
-
Versatility for Multiple Use Cases
Not just for sports: Aqualyte is also for “recovery from diarrhoea, vomiting, flu, COVID-19, ” etc. So it sits between clinical rehydration solutions and sports drinks.
-
Trusted / Endorsed in Australia
Used by elite athletes: for instance, Basketball Australia teams use Aqualyte. Developed with occupational health in mind, including mining and construction.
