Each sachet of PUR is provided to global emergency relief organizations or non-governmental organizations at a cost of $0,035 (3,5 US cents), not inclusive of shipping from Pakistan by ocean container. Transport, distribution, education, and community motivation can add significantly to program costs. Sachets are generally sold at product cost recovery for 10 US cents each, for a cost of 1 US cent per litre treated. Currently, PUR projects operate either on partial cost recovery (charging the user only for the product, and subsidizing program costs with donor funds), or fully subsidized free distribution such as in emergency situations. Procter & Gamble sells the PUR sachets at cost, makes no profits on PUR sales, and donates programmatic funding to some projects.
