Purifas is a multi-award-winning healthcare company committed to providing hygiene solutions that are proven in both clinical health protection, and comfort for patients and clients. Our aim is to ensure that every patient or client gets the ultimate treatment experience, be that in an allied health or beauty setting.
Purifas was established by a highly experienced and respected Australian physiotherapist, Ibrahim Samaan, who served for many years across public and private practice. During his time in clinics he would often see over 15 patients a day, noticing issues that he felt demanded innovative solutions.
After five years devoted to problem solving, followed by product design, in 2019 his first two solutions finally went to market — FaceShield and FacePad.
The Purifas product range is designed for those who take their profession, business and duty of care seriously. Purifas is committed to research and development, designing and testing, to ensure all Purifas products provide real value to therapists and an unrivalled experience to the consumer.
Our full product range is available to purchase online and therapists are welcome to order directly through Purifas, with orders being dispatched from Purifas HQ in Sydney, Australia. Alternatively, you can choose to place your order with one of our many leading distributors located in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan and the UK.
Therapists often assume reusable automatically means sustainable — especially with towels. But when you look at the full lifecycle, laundry carries hidden water, energy, chemical and time costs that add up fast. This blog breaks down the real environmental impact of laundering versus recycling polypropylene, and shows why the greener choice isn’t about reusable vs single‑use in theory, but about which pathway actually reduces harm in a busy clinic.
Scar tissue is a dynamic, living structure shaped by biochemistry, tissue mechanics and the quality of care throughout recovery. This blog outlines how targeted clinical nutrition supports collagen formation and inflammation control, how early manual therapy helps guide healthy fibre alignment, and how modern modalities such as IASTM and myofascial cupping use shear and decompression to restore mobility in restrictive scars. It also highlights the unique considerations of oncology scars, where lymphedema risk, radiation‑altered tissue and somatic memory require gentle, trauma‑informed treatment. You’ll also find details of a related online event at the end of this blog.
