Puragen’s approach is to be comprehensive for customers.
Partnership with Puragen is all about making purification as efficient, effective and straightforward as possible. There are three key pillars:
- The starting point is technical analysis and/or identification of the specific pollutants to be dealt with, and the regulatory requirements to be met.
- This drives selection of the optimal activated carbon formulation for the situation, from the wide range available.
- Operationally, Puragen offers a range of options, from mobile filters on a rental model to supply and/or recycling of the carbon, all backed up with technical and site services and an integrated logistics network.
Puragen is committed to innovation, always exploring next-generation carbon materials and technologies to make purification more efficient, effective and sustainable.
