Protecting all populations from the risks present in the air has always been our reason for existing, and this with the help of technological innovations adapted to all environments.

R-PUR’s mission since 2016

An Idea born from a Friendship

R-PUR - Encounter

Encounter

2016 – When we met in Seoul, we were very far from thinking that we would be where we are today.

Directly concerned by the problem of air pollution, we were looking for a truly effective solution to protect ourselves.

A great inspiration

It is then a quest for excellence that begins with the search for the best materials and technology in the world.

Surrounded by the right people (doctors, researchers, chemists) our first prototypes are born.

R-PUR - A great inspiration
R-PUR - R&D investment

R&D investment

2017 – We are investing heavily in order to offer a product that meets three main criteria: efficiency, comfort and design.

We are ready to offer our solution to all : the R-PUR Nano® mask was born.

Funding

2017 was the year of our crowdfunding campaigns. We did not expect such enthusiasm: we exceeded our objective by more than €300,000.

Production also begins in France : we have all the necessary know-how to develop quality products.

R-PUR - First happy customers

First happy customers

2018 – Our users are starting to receive their masks and the first feedback is unanimous: the mask does them good on a daily basis. Mission accomplished!

They also offer us improvements and it is thanks to their valuable feedback that we continue to improve our R-PUR products every day.

R-PUR raises €2.5M

2019 – Citizen Capital, European impact fund joins the capital of R-PUR as well as successful entrepreneurs: Marc Simoncini & Éric Larchevêque.

We will be able to increase our production with the aim of equipping more users and thus meet the ever-growing demand.

2020 – Time has been against us, but at the end of this year 2020, our production has been multiplied by 5.

Anyone wishing to protect themselves can now equip themselves: more than 60,000 city dwellers wear their R-PUR mask on a daily basis.
