Consumer watchdog warns Purexygen for unfair practices

The business has given an underwriting to ensure compliance with the CPFTA.

The Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) has issued warnings to Purexygen Pte. Ltd. and its directors due to unfair practices.

CCCS discovered that Purexygen, a supplier of water filtration systems, had engaged in unfair conduct after investigating the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act 2003 (CPFTA).

The business had recorded several unfair practices between September 2021 to November 2023.

Purexygen has since responded to the investigation by taking active steps to make changes to their business practices, as well as giving an underwriting in compliance with the CPFTA.

Purexygen’s directors Heng Wei Hwee and Tan Tong Ming have similarly given undertakings that the company will not engage in the unfair practices identified during the CCCS’ investigation.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
