CALGARY, Feb. 1, 2018 /CNW/ - Pure Technologies Ltd. ("Pure" or the "Company") (TSX: PUR) is pleased to announce the closing of the plan of arrangement involving Pure, Xylem Inc.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, the Purchaser has indirectly acquired, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, all of the outstanding Pure common shares in exchange for the cash consideration of $9.00 per share (the "Cash Consideration").
