Washing Machines Microplastic Filter

Microplastic Filter

During the washing process, clothes frequently release microplastics which enter the laundry wastewater. This filter addresses that issue and traps up to 90 per cent of microplastic fibres. The environmentally friendly accessory works for several washing cycles before it requires emptying. A red signal indicates when the filter needs to be cleaned. The cartridge itself is made of 50 per cent recycled plastic.

Statement by the Jury

This microplastic filter effectively solves a well-known problem. The sustainable manner in which it does so, and its easy use are further benefits.
