Puragen combines advanced activated carbon engineering with full-service filtration and cutting-edge PFAS destruction to deliver integrated, high-performance purification solutions.
Puragen is a global leader in high-performance activated carbon technologies, supporting air, water, biogas and industrial applications. Puragen brings together deep scientific expertise with comprehensive service capabilities to address purification challenges. With major operational hubs in the UK, US, France, Spain and the Netherlands, we support customers at every stage of their filtration journey, ensuring reliability, regulatory compliance and operational efficiency.
Removal and Permanent Destruction of PFAS
Puragen delivers award-winning technology for the detection, capture, and permanent destruction of PFAS, including PFOS, PFOA, and other persistent organic pollutants
(POPs).
Our FiltraPure® activated carbon range features surface-modified carbons
engineered specifically for the removal of most PFAS group chemicals and is effective for both short and long-chain compounds.
Puragen’s REACT-Sys® technology then delivers a complete molecular breakdown of PFAS, enabling sustainable, reliable, and permanent destruction. Spent carbon is then safely recycled for reuse, eliminating the need for landfill or hazardous incineration.
Sustainable Purification
Lower your CO₂ emissions by over 90%.
Proven results
Our PFAS Search, Capture & Destroy technology has been externally validated to remove and completely destroy PFAS molecules.
Lower Costs
Reduce your usage of virgin carbon, cut procurement expenses, and the disposal cost of spent materials.
Collaborative partnerships at the core
At the centre of our strategy is a commitment to long-term, collaborative partnerships. We work closely with OEMs, utilities, industrial operators and environmental service providers to co-develop tailored activated carbon solutions that meet evolving regulatory requirements and performance expectations. This partnership model is underpinned by a robust technical foundation: Puragen’s award-winning chemists, materials scientists and engineers deliver advanced analytical support and application-specific design, ensuring every customer receives the optimal carbon grade and system configuration for their unique process demands.
Puragen’s capabilities span the full lifecycle of activated carbon. We supply a broad portfolio of activated carbon products across a range of applications, from PFAS removal in municipal and industrial water treatment to H2S and VOC mitigation in biogas upgrading. Puragen also operates one of the largest mobile filter rental fleets in Europe, offering scalable plug-and-play filtration units that minimise downtime and eliminate on-site carbon handling for customers requiring agile, temporary or high-volume solutions.
Sustainability at the heart of our operations
A defining element of our value proposition is its closed-loop sustainability model. We operate one of Europe’s most advanced thermal reactivation networks, allowing spent activated carbon to be safely recycled and reused. With dedicated “green,” “amber” and high-sulfur reactivation lines, Puragen manages a wide variety of industrial, environmental and potable-water carbons while delivering over a carbon footprint reduction in excess of 90%, compared to the production, use and disposal of virgin activated carbons.
Integrated services for reliable performance
Beyond reactivation, we provide integrated logistics, full site services, and complete maintenance and optimisation support for fixed filter installations. Its in-house engineering teams design, manufacture and install filtration systems, while its quality, safety and compliance operations uphold ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 standards across the business. This ensures consistent quality, environmental responsibility and operational safety throughout every deployment.
Delivering end-to-end purification solutions
From VOC and odour control in air treatment, to PFAS, dissolved organics and disinfection by-products in water purification, to protecting renewable energy assets in biogas and biomethane production, Puragen delivers proven, end-to-end purification solutions. Combining scientific excellence with innovative carbon engineering, Puragen stands as a trusted long-term partner for delivering cleaner, safer and more sustainable outcomes for our customers.
