About Matter
Matter. develops the Regen.™ technology, a patented filtration system that captures and recycles microplastics from wastewater, particularly targeting emissions from textiles and laundry. Each year, approximately 650,000 metric tonnes of microplastics enter the oceans, and Matter. aims to mitigate this pollution through efficient separation processes across various markets.
```xml <problem> Approximately 650,000 metric tonnes of microplastics enter the oceans each year, with a significant portion originating from textiles and laundry wastewater. These microplastics pose a threat to marine ecosystems and potentially human health. Current wastewater treatment methods are often insufficient in capturing these microscopic pollutants. </problem> <solution> Matter. has developed Regen.™, a patented filtration system designed to capture and recycle microplastics from wastewater streams. The technology utilizes a regenerative process to efficiently separate microfibers, specifically targeting emissions from textiles and laundry. Regen.™ is applied across various markets to capture microplastics and microfibers across major emission pathways, including laundry, textiles, and wastewater treatment facilities. The company's approach aims to mitigate microplastic pollution at scale through efficient separation processes. </solution> <features> - Patented Regen.™ filter solution employing a unique regenerative process - Efficient separation of microfibers from wastewater - Applications across laundry, textiles, and wastewater treatment - Ground-breaking microfibre filter device for home washing machines - Technology applicable to various markets to capture microplastics across major emission pathways </features> <target_audience> Matter.'s primary customers include textile manufacturers, laundry facilities, wastewater treatment plants, and consumers seeking to reduce microplastic pollution from their laundry. </target_audience> ```
