To design a microplastics filter, this company copied nature
Inc.: Max Pennington, Chip Miller and David Dillman, the founders of CLEANR, a startup launched at Case Western Reserve, discussed their company, which aims to filter microplastics out of water used in washing machines. “As you look at the landscape of microplastics news, it’s sort of a new part, or a new body part,” Pennington said. “We’re offering a solution that takes a really big swing at microplastic pollution. As a consumer with a family, you want to protect your kids and grandkids … I think stopping it at the source is really critical.”
