PCI Membranes buys Pentair product line

PCI Membranes has completed the strategic acquisition of Pentair’s X-Flow Classic Tubular Membrane.

The ‘Classic Membranes’ tubular membrane product is suited to handling aqueous feeds with high levels of dry substances (up to 40 000 ppm), high viscosities, or high degrees of fouling.

“This agreement with industry leader Pentair demonstrates our global leadership in advanced filtration solutions,” said Ian Sadler, managing director of PCI Membranes. “We are excited to utilize this new product offering to solve more problems for our customers and increase the quality and efficiency that we are known for.”

PCI Membranes, which is part of the Filtration Group, says it will restructure its manufacturing lines to incorporate the product line.

“Our strong portfolio of intellectual property, combined with our large network of expertise in advanced filtration, puts us into unique strata within our arena,” said Sadler, “and this is just the next step in our continued innovation roadmap.”
