Puraffinity develops a patented adsorbent media, Puratech® G400+, that selectively captures a broad spectrum of short- and long‑chain PFAS compounds with fast kinetics and up to seven times higher capacity than conventional ion‑exchange resins. The NSF/ANSI/CAN‑certified media can be integrated as a plug‑in solution into existing point‑of‑entry, point‑of‑use, municipal, industrial, or environmental service water‑treatment systems, delivering more compact, cost‑efficient PFAS removal for utilities, industrial plants, commercial facilities, and residential integrators.

Problem
PFAS contamination in drinking and process water poses significant health and environmental risks, and existing treatment methods often require large, costly systems with limited capacity and slow removal kinetics.
Solution
Puraffinity offers a patented adsorbent media, Puratech® G400+, designed specifically to capture a broad spectrum of short- and long‑chain PFAS compounds. The media is engineered through a multi‑step synthesis that provides high affinity and fast kinetics, enabling shorter contact times and a reduced system footprint. Compared with conventional petroleum‑derived ion‑exchange resins, the media delivers up to seven times greater capacity, extending service life and lowering replacement costs. The product is certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 (material safety) and NSF/ANSI/CAN 372, allowing it to be integrated as a plug‑in solution into existing point‑of‑entry, point‑of‑use, municipal, industrial, or environmental service water‑treatment systems.
Target Audience
Primary customers include water utilities, industrial process plants, commercial facilities, residential point‑of‑use system integrators, and environmental service firms that need efficient, cost‑effective PFAS removal.
