What are MicroPlastics?

Polyester fabrics are an athlete’s best ally because they are highly elastic, abrasion-resistant, easy to care for, and, above all, absorb less moisture and expel sweat more easily than other types of fabrics, but
with each wash, countless plastic fibers from synthetic textiles are making their way from washing machines into rivers and oceans.

 

The GuppyfriendTM Washing Bag

The Guppyfriend Washing Bag is a patented solution that filters out the tiniest microfibers released from textiles during washing. The self-cleaning fabric bag is made of a specially designed micro-filter material. Simply collect the fibers and dispose them of properly.

 

How to use The GuppyfriendTM Washing Bag

The Guppyfriend Washing Bag is only a first step towards a holistic solution to microfiber pollution. Not more. Not less. Our overconsumption needs to change radically, and new materials, manufacturing techniques, clean washing machines and more effective sewage treatment plants need to be developed. This might take a while.

Until then your The Guppyfriend Washing Bag is a practical and effective way to reduce plastic pollution in our rivers and oceans.
