CLEANR's VORTX Filtration System Captures 90% of Microplastics in Laundry
CLEANR, a pioneering company, has developed a groundbreaking filtration system called VORTX. This innovation, independently verified by the Shaw Institute, captures over 90% of microplastics, including those as small as 50 microns. The system's success is timely, given the alarming discovery of microplastics in approximately 77% of human blood samples, and their presence in lung tissue and placental samples. CLEANR's technology offers a solution to mitigate this growing concern.
CLEANR's modular 'CLEANR INSIDE' unit is designed to fit into European washing machine models, meeting French, EU, and U.S. requirements. This makes it accessible to a wide range of households. Each household using the system for four laundry loads per week can prevent about 344 million microplastics from entering waterways annually. This significant reduction in microplastic pollution is a testament to the system's efficiency.
The company's innovative approach to microplastic mitigation is complemented by Worldly Axion's proactive risk management strategy. Worldly Axion merges facility-level primary data with external datasets to identify vulnerable suppliers and optimize decarbonization and resilience investments. Their risk-intelligence platform helps brands anticipate and adapt to climate and social disruptions across their supply chains using predictive data. This holistic approach ensures businesses are prepared for the future, with projections suggesting the world could face 560 disasters a year by 2030 without stronger mitigation.
CLEANR's VORTX-enabled filtration system and Worldly Axion's risk-intelligence platform are powerful tools in the fight against microplastic pollution and climate-related disruptions. By combining innovative technology with proactive risk management, they offer practical solutions for households and businesses alike. As microplastics continue to pose significant health and environmental concerns, these innovations provide a beacon of hope for a cleaner, more resilient future.
