Physicist at heart, Max loves to scuba-dive, box, write, play tennis, think up new business ideas and pet dogs. His innate desire to help people and improve society’s state remains the core driver of everything he does. Thankfully he’s supported by people for more capable than him, allowing him to be his best self. Join the weekly Planet Positive Ventures calls: https://planetpositive.ventures/weekly

Ep. 244 Briiv Airfilter - the pursuit of creating a sustainable consumer product

Briiv uses 100% renewable and natural materials to filter the air in your home or office environment, creating clean, safe air so you can breathe, as nature intended. Briiv is a UK based brand, which has set out to solve one of the key environmental problems with air purification devices. The filters. Current air purifiers use a combination of glass fibres and plastic. Once they reach the end of their life (typically 6-8 months) they are disposed of and head straight to landfill. As a society, we use 6000 tonnes of these filters every year, which take a millenia to decompose. The Briiv Air Filter is made with 100% biodegradable filters and manufactured with 90% natural and recyclable materials, such as bio-plastic made from elephant grass. In future, as an organisation, Briiv and its parent company FiveCreate, aim to create innovations in traditionally carbon-heavy industries and marketplaces, to reduce environmental impact as much as possible and set the standard for eco-design and eco-manufacturing.
