Guppyfriend is a product developed by the campaign STOP! MICRO WASTE, a German non-profit founded by a group of surfers and nature lovers to find solutions to the microfiber pollution problem. 

With each wash, countless plastic fibers from synthetic textiles are making their way from washing machines into rivers and oceans.

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 that reduces fiber shedding and protects your clothes. The Guppybag filters the few fibers that do break and doesn’t lose any fibers itself. Simply collect the fibers and dispose of them properly in the trash.
