Polymem (www.polymem.fr) and Clean Membranes (www.cleanmembranes.com ) announced a new partnership at the WEFTEC 2015 (Water Environment Federation Technical Exhibition and Conference) held September 26-30th in Chicago. The two companies will offer advanced ultrafiltration membrane solutions for the treatment of water and wastewater.

Polymem is a European manufacturer of hollow fiber membranes, modules and systems since 1997. Their polymeric ultrafiltration membranes are manufactured using PSF and PVDF, including an advanced generation of PVDF with long-lasting hydrophilicity. Their membrane products address applications ranging from residential to large water treatment plants and include standard and custom modules, as well as their innovative, cost and space-saving Gigamem modules.

Clean Membranes is an early stage US company, commercializing a new, highly fouling-resistant polymer for water filtration membranes that was developed at MIT. Clean Membranes’ proprietary polymeric membrane technology offers unprecedented fouling resistance and is particularly appropriate for treating water with oil.

“We’re very excited about this partnership,” noted Clean Membranes President and CEO, Jean-Marc Pandraud. “There are very complementary geographic, technology and large-scale manufacturing dimensions to our relationship with Polymem. We’re going to focus on the North American market, add their latest generation of UF membranes to our water treatment product offering, and support their existing North American installed base of water treatment systems. The partnership is going to help us serve our customers better and open up new opportunities for us.” "The partnership with Clean Membranes gives us both access to the North American market and a development partner for new, market-driven products,” said Jean-Michel Espenan, President and CEO of Polymem.

These two innovative companies will offer the North American market several innovative and market-tested membrane filtration products and packaged system solutions for a range of water and wastewater treatment applications.
