Reduce micro plastics from your washing machine

Problem

35% of microplastics are shed from washing textiles such as:

Polyester, acrylic and polymide – all synthetics shed plastic in the wash.

Cotton, wool and bamboo are natural fabrics and have no micro plastics.

Solution

Wash synthetics at 30% C

Reduce friction with:

liquid detergent, full load, short wash, less often

Use a cora ball or guppy bag
