Industry leader in water treatment, liquid waste management and environment solutions, Ion Exchange (India) Limited recently announced the launch of Indion Swift 5Gx–a  high purity water generation product catering to the special needs of the pharmaceutical industry.

The product has been designed in consultation with pharmaceutical engineers and end users for maximum performance. This launch marks the company’s expansion of its product line for the sector within its ‘Indion’ purified water systems range.

Indion Swift 5Gximproves efficiency and purity by introducinga new and unique technology which uses ‘Uniform Particle Size’ resins instead of the conventional resins otherwise used in water treatment and purification. The new product uses a short-cycle regeneration method and takes up to 35 minutes only in order to regenerate as compared to other available conventional products which have an average time of 8 hours for a single regeneration cycle. The product is a first of its kind for the pharmaceutical sector and with validation package.
