Claros, Daikin America Ink Full-Scale PFAS Destruction Deal

Minneapolis and Decatur, Alabama – October 01, 2026 -- Claros Technologies and Daikin America have signed a commercial agreement to permanently deploy the ClarosTechUVTM PFAS destruction system at Daikin's manufacturing facility in Decatur, Alabama, marking the first full-scale, long-term installation of the technology at an industrial site.

Pilot program advances to permanent industrial installation
The deal follows a multi-phase collaboration between the two companies that moved from pilot demonstration to commercial optimization and now to permanent deployment. The system will be integrated directly into Daikin's manufacturing operations as a continuously operating unit engineered for industrial-scale throughput, and will be incorporated into broader facility upgrades underway at the Decatur campus over the next several years.

Minneapolis – September 22, 2026 -- Claros Technologies has completed a two-week commercial-scale pilot of its ClarosTechUVTM system at Bachem AG's flagship manufacturing campus in Bubendorf, Switzerland, meeting or exceeding the pharmaceutical company's performance metrics for destroying trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in industrial wastewater.

The trial marks Claros' entry into pharmaceutical manufacturing and expands its commercial footprint in Europe. Bachem, a listed producer of peptide and oligonucleotide APIs including semaglutide, the active ingredient in GLP-1 therapies for weight management and type 2 diabetes, ran the pilot under real-world production conditions.
