PFAS, often called ‘forever chemicals’, are becoming a more important issue in global water quality. They remain in the environment for long periods and have raised concerns about their potential impact on health.
This is increasing pressure on governments, regulators and consumers to improve drinking water quality. Regulation is tightening, awareness is growing and demand is rising for filtration systems that can reduce exposure at the point of use.
PFAS are difficult to remove with conventional filtration. Strix is developing technologies aimed at improving drinking water quality, including solutions designed to address emerging contaminants such as PFAS.
Water filtration is moving beyond basic taste and odour improvement. Customers increasingly want products that can deal with more complex contaminants, while regulators are placing greater focus on measurable water quality standards.
This shift supports demand for companies with the technical capability to develop more effective filtration products. It also creates barriers to entry, because successful solutions require research, testing and reliable performance.
Continued investment gives Strix the opportunity to build products before demand becomes more established and before regulatory requirements become more demanding.
Strix Group plc (LON:KETL) is a global leader in the innovation, design, manufacture and supply of kettle safety controls, heating and temperature controls, steam management and water filtration technologies.
