Agreement Advances Company's Water Technology Platform and Long-Term Commercialization Strategy
BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WaterPure International, Inc. (OTCID: WPUR) ("WaterPure" or the "Company"), a clean water technology company focused on identifying, developing and commercializing innovative water technologies, today announced the execution of a Research License Agreement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to evaluate advanced NASA-developed membrane and filtration technologies for potential industrial water applications.
The agreement represents another step in WaterPure's strategy of expanding its technology portfolio through strategic licensing and collaboration with leading government agencies, research institutions and commercial partners.

Under the agreement, WaterPure will evaluate NASA-developed membrane and filtration technologies for potential application in industrial water capture and delivery systems serving markets that include agriculture, HVAC systems, data centers and U.S. military installations.

This Research License Agreement with NASA reflects WaterPure's commitment to disciplined scientific review, strategic technology acquisition and responsible commercialization. I look forward to working with our leadership team as we continue identifying innovative technologies capable of addressing important global water challenges.”
Mr. Michaels also serves as WaterPure's Business Development and Scientific Advisor.
