The problem we are facing

Every time we wash our clothes hundreds of thousands of microscopic plastic fibres are released into the wastewater. 🧺 😵 Because washing machines don't have filters to catch them, all these small plastic particles end up in wastewater and travel down the drain. They pollute the environment, harm ecosystems, and end up in our food and drinking water. 🌎 💦 🥦 Our filter catches them at their source - the washing machine.

Product description

The PlanetCare Microfiber Filter is an advanced solution designed to address one of the most overlooked sources of plastic pollution—synthetic microfibers released during laundry.

Attached externally to any standard washing machine, the PlanetCare filter captures up to 98% of these harmful fibers before they enter the wastewater system.

The system is easy to install and comes with reusable cartridges that are returned, cleaned, and reused through a circular logistics model.

The filter includes a bypass indicator that notifies users when a cartridge is full, ensuring maximum efficiency.

Ideal for households, businesses, and institutions, this product transforms ordinary laundry routines into an act of environmental responsibility.

The captured fibers are stored and planned to be upcycled into insulation or other materials.

With a robust customer support system and a subscription-based model that includes delivery and return of cartridges, PlanetCare is not only offering a product but enabling a lifestyle change that directly contributes to healthier oceans and a more sustainable future.
