Our Story

The Porex Life Sciences Institute emerges from a rich legacy of innovation and a deep commitment to global well-being. It all began with Filtration Group, a distinguished global leader renowned for its pioneering filtration solutions designed to make the world safer, healthier, and more productive. Fueled by a dedicated team, a global footprint, and cutting-edge technology, Filtration Group has consistently pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. Our journey into the life sciences field was a response to the evolving needs of the world, driven in part by the seismic shifts brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. In a world grappling with unprecedented health challenges, we realized the pressing need to do more. The Porex Life Sciences Institute was born out of this commitment. ​

Guided by our President, Avi Robbins, we are passionately dedicated to making a profound impact on the life science industries. Our journey of innovation has already yielded the groundbreaking Saletto saliva Device, designed to simplify sample collection and increase testing capacity, particularly in the realm of saliva-based diagnostics. But we’re not stopping there. As we venture into the genetic and genomic testing market, we aim to empower individuals to predict their risk of chronic diseases with unprecedented ease and accuracy.​

Backed by Filtration Group’s extensive expertise and global reach, the Porex Life Sciences Institute is poised to lead the charge in driving innovation and revolutionizing sample collection. We’re here to make a difference. Learn more about our ongoing journey at WWW.POREXLIFESCIENCES.COM.​
