Puragen: Activated carbon purification solutions

At Puragen, we deliver purification solutions. We stand at the forefront of activated carbon filtration technology. Our mission is clear: to provide advanced, tailored solutions that meet the ever-evolving purification needs of industry.

We recently rebranded to Puragen from CPL/Puragen Activated Carbons – a change that reflects our evolution as a business and our renewed commitment to innovation and service excellence. This new identity unites our legacy with our future vision, reinforcing our role as a global leader in activated carbon purification.

We understand that every application is unique. That’s why we work closely with our customers to identify the best activated carbon and filter systems for their specific challenges, however complex or varied they may be.

Our portfolio includes a broad range of activated carbons and mobile filtration units, along with end-to-end services including engineering, site services and award-winning UK reactivation facility. We deliver purification solutions targeted to remove specific contaminants in your operation. Whether it’s industrial air emissions, water treatment, or PFAS abatement, our products are engineered to perform efficiently and reliably, minimising environmental impact and maximising value for our clients.

What truly sets Puragen apart is our commitment to innovation. Through our extensive R&D programme, we continue to develop new carbon grades and filtration technologies that address emerging contaminants and regulatory pressures. This proactive approach enables us to help our customers stay ahead, ensuring their systems remain compliant and future-ready.

Equally important is our collaborative ethos. We don’t just sell products – we build partnerships. Our team works side-by-side with customers to design, implement and optimise purification strategies, supporting them from initial consultation through to ongoing performance monitoring. This integrated approach means better outcomes, greater operational efficiency, and long-term peace of mind. From launching our first carbon filter in 2002, each step in our journey has strengthened our ability to deliver high-performance purification solutions.

In 2023 and 2024, Puragen earned Green Apple Awards for Environmental Best Practice and our PFAS abatement technology and, in 2025, joint winners for the ADBA Research & Innovation category for our high-sulphur spent carbon reactivation technology.

These awards demonstrate our technical and commercial leadership within our sector – we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible from activated carbon purification. We’re proud to help industries meet their sustainability goals while maintaining performance and compliance. Puragen is not only raising the standard in activated carbon, it’s shaping the future of purification.
