The GUPPYFRIEND washing bag is the first practical way to prevent microfibers from entering into rivers and oceans. Its soft surface results in fewer fiber losses and thus helps your garments last longer. The microfibers that break during washing are captured inside the bag. Using this reduces fiber shedding and protects your clothes and filters the few fibers that do break and doesn't lose any fibers itself. It is also a daily reminder to change our buying habits and washing rituals.

STOP! Micro Waste
STOP! Micro Waste is a nonprofit initiative that is dedicated to raising awareness about the (micro)plastic problem. They aim to explore and initiate great ideas on how to avoid, replace and re-use plastics in everyday life and beyond. The guppy friend washing bag is the most effective hands-on solution against microplastic ocean pollution from washing. With each wash cycle, countless plastic fibers from synthetic textiles are making their way from washing machines into rivers and oceans. With the use of the guppy friend, microfibers that break during washing are captured inside the bag. Using this reduces fiber shedding and protects your clothes and filters the few fibers that do break and doesn’t lose any fibers itself. It is also a daily reminder to change our buying habits and washing rituals.
