Aprisium team

Singapore-based Aprisium, a provider of advanced contaminant detection and monitoring solutions, has secured US$7 million in an oversubscribed Series A financing round led by Deep-Tech Venture Partners and Cocoon Capital.

Woh Hup and Solisa Peppercorn also participated.

The new funding will fuel Aprisium’s expansion into key markets in Europe, the US, and Asia.

Founded in 2022 by serial entrepreneurs Raghav Narayan and Dr Lars-Henrik Skjolding, Aprisium is a spinoff from the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR).

The startup helps businesses prevent environmental hazards, optimise treatment, ensure compliance, and enhance both operational efficiency and profitability.

It offers advanced solutions with on-site, real-time testing for the continuous and accurate detection of contaminants, including heavy metals, inorganic compounds, and organic chemicals, like Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). It can also rapidly profile novel contaminants in mediums such as fuels and engineered fluids.

The company has deployed its analysers in Singapore, the Philippines, and Australia, improving contaminant detection.

“With our innovative technology, we are driving a new era of sustainability, enabling our customers to achieve unprecedented levels of efficiency and profitability. Together with our dedicated team, we are not just imagining a better future; we are creating it,” said CEO Narayan.

The global environmental monitoring market, including water, air, and soil, is expected to reach US$25 billion by 2025, driven by rising regulations and demand for contaminant management. The industrial water treatment market alone is projected to exceed US$18 billion by 2027. Aprisium’s advanced technology positions it to capture significant market share in these expanding sectors.
