Xeros Technology Group plc provided an update on results from independent testing of their domestic washing machine filtration technology, XFilter. Hohenstein, based in Bonnigheim Germany, a highly respected testing institute for the textile industry, has accredited Xeros' filtration device, XFilter, with the higher level of performance, capturing over 99% of microplastics. These tests were carried out on behalf of a leading Asian domestic washing machine OEM as part of the test and trial agreement signed with Xeros in July 2021.

The test analysed the retention rate of microplastics using an XFilter device integrated into a washing machine provided by company's OEM partner.  These independently conducted tests consistently showed performance levels of over 99% capture rate, thereby confirming XFilter as the leading commercially available microplastic filtration device. These test results, combined with the recently announced Licensing agreement with Hanning, a leading component supplier to the global washing machine industry, provide further evidence of the potential demand for XFilter.

Xeros expects to move to commercial licensing discussions with Asian OEM partner in the coming months and will provide further updates when appropriate.
