Our MIssion

Nurdle Soup strives to to use technology to increase accountability for spillage and to control and reduce the spillage. Next to detecting, Nurdle Soup also strives educate the public about the spillage of micro-plastics and the subsequent hazards of this spillage, in order to create more awareness for this environmental problem.

about us

We are a multidisciplinary team from Eindhoven University of Technology, founded in 2019, with the goal of making a change within the sustainability-related area of plastic pollution. Currently, our team is working on the development of a smart device capable of detecting microplastics in large water bodies.

In previous years the focus has specifically been on obtaining data about the still fairly unknown problem of nurdles; the building blocks of most plastic products.

With our newest data systems we strive to help scale-up cleaning initiatives and put a change in motion in the conventional plastic industry. For the latter we want to cooperate with plastic producing companies and assist them in their journey to prevent leakage.

Ultimately we aim to be able to detect microplastics and help prevent more pollution.
