With Guppyfriend Washing Bag Against Microplastic Pollution

We are constantly striving to improve and to do our best, especially when it comes to environmental protection and sustainability.

Recycled or not, synthetic fabrics always have an impact on our ecosystem. Washing synthetic fabrics creates microplastics through abrasion, which enter nature via the wastewater. To prevent this, the wash water would have to be filtered — something no washing machine currently does.

After some research, we came across the Guppyfriend washing bag. This laundry bag is the perfect addition to our surf bikinis, swimsuits and all your other synthetic textiles.

It's very simple to use: place the items you want to wash inside the bag before putting them in the machine. Guppyfriend prevents microfibres from entering the sewer system and, from there, rivers and seas. It also protects your garments, so they last longer thanks to less abrasion.

Guppyfriend isn't just the first scientific solution to microplastic pollution from washing — it also supports various educational programmes to raise awareness of (micro)plastic pollution. That's why we're big fans and want to support our friends at LANGBRETT and their initiative STOP! Micro Waste.
