NX Filtration is growing rapidly and has unique technology for global challenges regarding water quality and quantity. Our mission is: “pure and affordable water for all”. We therefore produce advanced hollow fiber membranes for use in nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration applications, enabling our partners to excel in sustainable membrane filtration applications. Our membrane technology filters the smallest contaminants from water such as nanoplastics, organic substances, dyes, medicinal residues, bacteria, and viruses. This has resulted in new and simple processes for water treatment, wastewater reuse, and drinking water production. In 2024, a completely new, highly modern state-of-the-art factory in Hengelo was commissioned.
