RapidPure Water Purification
About RapidPure
RapidPure was founded in 2012 by Scott Ruprecht with a focus on revolutionary water purification technology.
The company originated in Bayport, United States, with the mission of developing advanced electroadsorption technology for portable water treatment.
In 2019, RapidPure was acquired by Tender Corporation (now Adventure Ready Brands), providing access to broader distribution channels and outdoor industry expertise.
The brand has distinguished itself in the competitive water treatment market by combining filtration and purification in a single system, addressing the critical gap where traditional filters couldn't eliminate viruses.
Today, RapidPure continues to innovate with their UltraCeram® technology, offering outdoor enthusiasts and emergency preparedness users faster flow rates while maintaining comprehensive pathogen protection.
