The Guppyfriend™ Washing Bag is a patented solution which prevents synthetic garments from releasing harmful plastic microfibers into the waterways

Up to 700,000 microfibers may be released with every single clothes wash, allowing the plastic fibres from synthetic textiles to make their way from your washing machine into rivers and oceans.  Plastic can absorb high concentrations of poisonous substances.  The microfibers are consumed by aquatic animals and enter the food chain. 

The Guppyfriend™ washing bag is engineered from a specially designed micro-filter material that doesn't shed fibres itself.  It filters out the tiniest microfibers released from textiles during washing.  You then simply collect the fibres from the bag and dispose of them properly.

Synthetic fibres are functional and durable for outdoor activities including swimming.  At present, it is difficult and often cost prohibitive to avoid using synthetic fibres altogether.  Sea & Stream stock the Guppyfriend™ Washing bag to provide you with a solution to preventing microfibers reaching ocean and rivers during washing.
