We invented a proprietary, new absorber technology to fulfil our mission: Keeping the most valuable resource clean by eliminating toxic metals, bacteria, PFAS and other harmful contaminants from water. It is expandable to relevant application areas driven by technological flexibility.
We use as a support material Silica Gel, Polystyrene, or others - in any case it should be porous. That porous support is covered with a chemically crosslinked polymer network. Different types of ligands can be attached to the polymer network – the proprietary instrAction absorber is generated, characterized by type, number and ratio of ligands.
The instrAction technology is based on absorber resins with binding groups that are complementary to the specific impurities so that they can be selectively bound as a group of impurities or as an individual component. In the past, a worldwide unique library of absorbent resins has been created that makes it easy to respond quickly and effectively to new challenges.
Some universal resins address broad groups of impurities, for example a wide range of heavy metals, while other resins are tuned to specific micropollutants. Both have in common that even the slightest traces of these impurities in the presence of complex solutions or matrices can be selectively removed below the detection limit of modern analysis systems.
We call it the iA technology – the intelligent absorber technology by instrAction.
Our absorber resins can be tailored to be optimised for PoU and PoE applications, as well as industrial and wastewater treatment across various use cases. We always analyse samples from your contaminated water before advising on the optimal setup.
We have worked more than 10 years to optimize our absorber efficiency, to meet strict requirements and from low to high volume of treatment situations. This means we are able to reduce cost and secure strong ROI.
In our in-house lab in Heidelberg, we are able to analyse samples before tailoring the optimal resin mix for your challenge. We take care of the destruction of media after use through our certified partners.
Each absorber we develop follows a controlled process — from molecular design and synthesis in our Heidelberg labs to full-scale production and drying under strict quality standards.
The image shows our absorber resin emerging from the drying system, a key stage that gives it its final structure and performance characteristics. This precision ensures consistent selectivity, stability, and flow behaviour in every batch.
