British sustainable technology scale-up Matter has announced a major new partnership with one of Europe’s leading domestic washing machine manufacturers.

It will see BSH, under the brands Bosch and Siemens, launch across Europe a sustainable microfibre filter for use with domestic washing machines that will address the global microplastic pollution crisis by preventing up to 97% of microfibres from being released into wastewater during every wash cycle.

We asked Senior Design Engineer, Mike Lawrence-Owen, to give us some technical insight into our dynamic Regen filter technology, and the story behind it’s development.

Following the launch of our 2023 impact report, we reflect on some key insights and our approach to measuring impact as a business.

Our founder and CEO, Adam Root, was recently welcomed on the Hardware to Save a Planet podcast, a podcast that explores technical innovations that are aiding in the fight against climate change.

The Builders Vision Impact report has been released this week, marking a significant milestone in their journey, as it represents the first document they have released in this capacity.

Last week, Matter's Chief Financial Officer, Rob Hemsley, had the pleasure of attending the prestigious Blue Earth Summit 2023 at the Propyard in Bristol.

As we near the end of another whirlwind year at Matter, we wanted to take a moment as a business to reflect on the significant outcomes of 2022 in the microplastics space, and what we hope to see in 2023 as we continue to work towards creating a better future for our oceans.
