Family founded
Family run

FFS International is run by the Hurter family. It was founded in 2013 by Tony Hurter following the sale of FFS Refiners, a family enterprise started and grown from 1974.

The ethos has always been to become the experts. FFS International has a proven track record of providing industrially successful solutions, from lab based R&D to plant execution. Part of the success is the emphasis on in-house development and knowledge transfer. Most recently, FFS International pioneered the development of supercritical purification of used lubricating oils.
