Refiner is a proven “quality first” high yield batch and interactive address list cleansing tool to transform address data. Refiner cleans, deduplicates, reformats and geocodes address data. Refiner solves the real address data problems which hamper profitable business and damage the marketing industry.
It’s easy to trash good data with sloppy matching routines, so Refiner delivers results, fast – but never compromises on reliability and quality. The “easy access” design appeals to ordinary users looking for top automated match rates. Whatever format your data is in and whatever format you want your data to be in – Refiner offers complete data flexibility.
Refiner is based on the renowned Postcode Plus engine, which contains full Royal Mail PAF data – covering over 31 Million letterbox locations. On average, users can expect to automatically clean over 1,000,000 records per hour using Refiner.

Refiner offers all the benefits of Postcode Plus. In addition, Refiner helps improve customer service, protect your brand, raise quality perception of your organisation, reduce post bills, cut waste and deliver the goods. Lost post loses customers, duplicates alienate them and poor spelling antagonises them. These problems are compounded when historically separated databases need to be merged or new lists are bought. Sometimes new computer systems or uses require data to be reformatted completely or for extra data to be appended. To solve these issues Refiner will enable you to clean, deduplicate, reformat and append easily and quickly.
