Purunity is a water and air filtration system provider with operations in Turkey and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Headquartered in Dubai, the company was founded in the UAE in 2020, and subsequently expanded into the Sultanate of Oman.

History

edit

Purunity was founded in the United Arab Emirates in July 2020 with the goal of providing quality water and air filtration solutions for households and businesses. It is listed as a local water filter provider and supplier by the Dubai Can initiative.[1] Over the years, the company rapidly grew and expanded into the Sultanate of Oman in 2022.

In the same year, Purunity had a strategic merger with Waternet, a similar service provider based in Istanbul, Turkey.[2] This merger created a subscription-based water and air purifier business accross Turkey and the GCC (i.e. "Waternet Group"), turning the merged entity into a regional platform.

As of October 2024, Waternet Group serves over 50,000 households across Turkey, the UAE, and the Sultanate of Oman.
