Fine Chemical Processing

Purity is critical in medical-grade and fine chemical manufacturing, where even trace contaminants can compromise patient safety, product integrity and regulatory compliance.

Puragen develops and provides applications for medical-grade purification that meet strict standards for pharmaceutical production (EU GMP Annex 1) and chemical processing (REACH, EPA and BPR regulations). From fine chemical production to high-purity solvent purification and recovery, Puragen’s solutions ensure consistent quality, process efficiency and compliance with the most demanding industry regulations.
