DRINKING WATER FILTRATION ImerPure™ filtration devices for the developing world
Harnessing decades of filtration expertise, Imerys has developed ImerPure™, a cost-effective, high performance gravity water filtration device for the developing world.
According to the World Health Organization, a staggering two billion people worldwide lack access to safe drinking water. In 2016, Imerys joined the Springboard Initiative created by nonprofit global-health leader PATH and funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to devise a safe drinking water system for low income families.
ImerPure™
ImerPure™ is a high performance gravity water filtration device, which is functional, resilient and compact. Available in consumer-ready packaging, it centers on an innovative and proprietary fast flowing ceramic cartridge capable of purifying highly turbid, contaminated water and reducing disease-causing pathogens. It is easy to clean and comes in a robust and modular design allowing for future attachments.
ImerPure™ meets international standards and is designed for distribution through partnerships with disaster relief organizations, social enterprises, NGOs and household manufacturers.
