Shallow Shell™ Technology Products

Purolite’s Shallow Shell technology—or SST®—is designed to improve softening and demineralization performance. Our R&D and manufacturing teams perfected an advanced resin bead structure to increase regeneration efficiency, reduce leakage and fouling, and conserve rinse and dilution water so that systems run better, with less expense and enhanced performance.

Key Advantages

  • Requires 15% less regenerant chemicals to achieve equal or better operating performance

  • Provides up to 50% savings in rinse and dilution water
  • Reduces leakage by over 20% at same regenerant dosage as traditional resin
  • Suitable for co-flow, counter-flow and packed bed systems
  • Supports ISO 14001:2004 initiatives toward environmental management and impact; uses less chemical regenerant and generates less waste
SST® is a registered trademark of Purolite.
