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

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
