A few years ago, an environmental activist told us about a newly published study. It showed that every time synthetic clothing is washed, tiny plastic fibres can be released into the wastewater, contributing to plastic pollution in rivers and oceans on a massive scale.

While our LANGBRETT clothing does not contain synthetic fibres, we and our partner stores also offer jackets, sweaters and trousers that are made almost entirely from high-performance synthetic fibres to withstand wind and weather.

To raise awareness of plastic and microplastic pollution in our environment, we founded GUPPYFRIEND: solutions that help make microplastic pollution visible, reduce it and change everyday routines – at home, in businesses and in communities.
