Microplastic-free Production for Industries
With the certification Microplastic-Free Production , we offer you the opportunity to position yourself as a company that takes responsibility in dealing with microplastics and water: For your customers, children and our planet.
THE MICROPLASTICS FOOTPRINT
The
The
microplastics footprint of a product
is the sum ofprimary and virtual microplastics
generated during its entire life cycle - from manufacture to disposal and related to the entire product including packaging, label or carrier materials.
VIRTUAL MICROPLASTICS
Virtual microplastics are created by synthetic polymers used in production. Even products that do not contain polymers as ingredients cause virtual microplastics during their production. Because it is not an ingredient of the final product and is not listed on the packaging, it is called virtual microplastic.

THE CHALLENGE
Virtual microplastics enter the environment uncontrolled in large quantities
via wastewater disposal. So far, there are neither limit values nor efficient technologies. Virtual microplastics often prevent resource-saving reuse of the process water.
THE SOLUTION
Wasser 3.0 offers
Wasser 3.0 offers
economically and ecologically meaningful solutions for the Microplastic-free Production
. Together with you, we analyze the microplastics footprint of your products or company and develop the tailor-made detect | remove | reuse strategy.
OUR GOALS
The optimal interaction within our Wasser 3.0 detect | remove | reuse strategy delivers ECO³: (1) Saving water, energy and costs. (2) Reducing waste. (3) Improving water quality.

THE COMPENSATION
As a non-profit company, Wasser 3.0 offers the opportunity to compensate for any virtual microplastics that cannot be removed or primary microplastics that cannot be replaced in a meaningful way elsewhere, e.g., through our educational projects.
