You might be on your own digging for quarters or waiting for a machine, but when it comes to catching microfibers to protect your clothes and our waterways, the cheerfully colored Cora Ball has your back.
Sustainable goodness
The Cora Ball is made from 100% recycled plastic and was made to catch microfibers flowing from our laundry into our oceans.
How it does good
Inspired by ocean life to protect ocean life
-
low carbon footprint
By creating a product that keeps harmful plastic and chemical-coated fibers from entering waterways, the Cora Ball helps all users decrease their environmental impact. It also protects our clothing, limiting both waste and the impact of waste disposal. On top of all this, their team is encouraging further eco-friendly practices, like washing smaller loads and using cold water. -
responsible sourcing
The Cora Ball is built to last in Vermont, made from recycled, recyclable plastic. -
supporting key causes
Cora Ball donates a portion of each purchase to Rozalia Project for a Clean Ocean, a non-profit tackling marine debris to address the emerging problem of microfiber pollution.
How to use it
Throw your Cora Ball in the washer with your normal load of laundry (excluding delicates, knits, fine fabrics, and anything with tassels, fraying threads or spaghetti straps). Check every couple of washes for fuzz, lint, or hair large enough to pull out by hand, then throw this out with your dryer lint.
When you're done...
Contact Cora Ball directly to return and recycle your product.
These are general guidelines for broadly-recyclable materials. Check with your local recycler to confirm what they take.
About the Brand
Cora Ball
Cora Ball
The founders of Cora Ball noticed a problem. Every time people do laundry, their clothes shed tiny, unseen microfibers (including plastic), which go down the drains of washing machines and into waterways. And most of us don’t even know it. Which means there’s plastic hiding in our waterways and ocean. That’s not great for the animals living in those waters, or for us. And so, they created a new kind of laundry ball that would prevent microfibers from breaking off and going down the drain.

United StatesCatches All!
Jen from the Hive Team here, I love using the Cora Ball! With 4 cats and 3 dogs, the coral ball catches not only the microfibers from our clothes and towels but also plenty of pet hair and fuzzy threads.

Keep up the good work. I have given one to each member of the family with a washing machine.
United StatesVery easy way to be better
Hey Hive! Katie from the merch team here. I started using the Cora Ball when I wash my sheets and towels. It's a verrrrrry easy way to prevent plastic from getting into our waterways. I just throw it in the washer (this is the hardest part - have to remember!), make sure it doesn't get into the dryer, and pull out all the fun stuff I find in the ball. Voila!
