Notes to Editors

Xeros Technology Group plc has developed and licenses two platform technologies which transform the sustainability, performance and economics in the manufacturing and laundering of garments and fabrics.

Xeros' patented XOrbs™ which are used in conjunction with the company's XDrum™ technology significantly reduce the amount of water used in the dyeing, finishing or laundering of garments and fabrics. They enable the remaining water to become far more efficient and effective in either affixing or removing molecules, the result being improvements in economic, operational, product and sustainability outcomes. The Group is applying its technology in the fields of garment manufacturing, commercial and domestic laundry and tanning with its laundry applications increasing garment care and life.

Xeros' XDrum™ technology is a patented, low cost machine drum design which enables XOrbs to be introduced into and subsequently removed from process cycles in Xeros' chosen fields. The design provides Original Equipment Manufacturers with the ability to make simple changes to their products to incorporate the Company's XOrb technology.

The Group has signed multiple license agreements for its XDrum and XOrb products with leading OEMs in major commercial and domestic markets.

XFiltra™ is a proprietary in-machine filtration technology which prevents harmful microfibres including microplastics, generated during washing cycles, from being released into the world's river and oceans.  Microplastics released from synthetic clothing during laundering is one of the largest sources of primary microplastic pollution entering our oceans every year.
