Hi James, yes that’s right. Any unpurified bivalve molluscs (oysters, mussels, clams etc) from Grade B areas have to be depurated for 42 hours before they can be sold to eat in the UK. We have tanks which can do up to 15000 oysters at a time.

So, the oysters from B waters sold for consumption whether in the UK or EU are purified. Is it also true that they should be purified as close as possible to consumption because after purification they deteriorate more quickly?
Yes purified as close as possible to point of sale for that reason
