Xeros develops and licenses patented technologies that reduce the environmental and financial cost of making, washing and caring for clothes.
Our three technology platforms Laundry Care System, Microplastic Pollution Filtration and Denim Finishing; reduce resource use, prevent pollution and improve garment performance across domestic laundry, commercial laundry and apparel manufacturing.
A capital-light strategy for global scale, our strategy is to build an IP-rich, capital-light business by licensing Xeros technologies to established manufacturers and commercial partners. By combining our proprietary technology with their manufacturing capabilities, distribution networks and market reach, our innovations can be integrated into products and brought to market at scale.
Our three technology platforms provide independent routes to growth across laundry and apparel, without requiring Xeros to invest in large-scale manufacturing. Each platform has commercial partners with the potential to take Xeros technologies to millions of end users worldwide.
Revenue is generated as products move through development and commercialisation, including technology-transfer and milestone payments, licence fees and royalties. Technologies using XOrbs™ also provide recurring revenue through their ongoing supply and replenishment as partner products scale.
Microplastic Pollution Filter →
Awareness of microplastic pollution is growing among consumers, industry and legislators, with washing machines estimated to contribute 35% of microplastics entering the oceans. Xeros’ independently verified filtration technology captures up to 98% of microplastics and more than 80% of natural fibres released during washing.
Donlim is manufacturing the external XF3 filter under licence, with launch plans in place with Russell Hobbs in the UK and MediaMarkt’s Koenic brand across Europe. Xeros is also developing integrated filtration solutions with washing-machine manufacturers, positioning the technology for wider adoption as demand and regulation develop
Xeros’ Laundry Care System combines patented XOrb™ and XDrum™ technologies to improve wash performance, reduce water, energy and detergent use, and protect garments from damaging fabric-on-fabric contact.
The technology is proven in commercial use through Xeros’ longstanding partnership with Georges SAS, a specialist French workwear laundry. Georges currently operates 15 Xeros-enabled machines and has ordered three more to support its continued growth, demonstrating the system’s ability to lower operating costs and extend garment life.
Xeros’ Denim Finishing System uses reusable XOrbs™ as an effective alternative to pumice stone, reducing waste, resource consumption and garment damage while delivering consistent finishes.
Through its partnership with Yilmak Makina, Xeros-enabled denim-processing machines are being introduced to major manufacturers internationally. The first placement at Ambition Apparel achieved the required finishes without pumice, using 50% less energy and 30% less chemistry and producing 30% less CO₂e. Further placements are progressing across Turkey, Egypt and Bangladesh.
