Blue Foot Membranes NV

Climate change, industrialization and population growth lead to water scarcity across the world. As a consequence, the industrial use of groundwater is restricted or even forbidden in several parts of the world. This stricter regulation makes the re-use of wastewater necessary. Blue Foot Membranes NV (BFM), a start-up company, produces and commercializes the unique and worldwide-patented Integrated Permeate Channel (IPC®) membranes. IPC® membranes are the world first fully back washable flat sheet membranes and are especially designed as high performing membranes for MBR, municipal/domestic wastewater treatment systems and water re-use applications. With an international top team of technical experts and business entrepreneurs, BFM supplies municipalities, industrial customers, original equipment manufacturers and engineering companies around the world with their state of the art IPC® membranes.
