We started with one simple question:

How can we put the power to access healthier

living spaces back into the hands of individuals?

As we have watched the environmental crisis of plastics pollution unfold, we have noticed powerful voices, ones that could do something to mitigate or stop it, missing from the dialogue. Many groups, including the United Nations, have been working diligently to convey the urgency of this growing problem and encourage and facilitate cooperation, but with little success at scale.

While the evidence around the toxicity of microplastics is robust and growing, it is also very disjointed and vast, with few pathways to help people make sense of it or know how to use this information. The idea for plastX originated when it became clear that people needed help to put what they were learning about the effects of microplastics in the environment into actionable steps to reduce their exposure.

The solutions, including innovative products, are an important piece of the puzzle, but there is still considerable confusion about how to begin or prioritize the transition to plastic-free living. PlastX fills this gap by providing a service that helps clients understand their risk to micro- and nanoplastics in a sphere where they actually have control: their own homes. We then help them build a holistic plan and select tools toward creating healthier living spaces.
