Notes to Editors
Xeros Technology Group plc (LN: XSG) is a platform technology company that is reinventing water intensive industrial and commercial processes by replacing water with polymer bead technologies. Its patented technologies have the capacity to provide material economic, operational and sustainability improvements that are unachievable with traditional processes. The Group first applied its technology in the commercial laundry market in advance of developing a system for use in the home. Subsequently, it has demonstrated its technology in the leather processing industry and its R&D teams are developing a number of additional applications for other water intensive industrial and commercial markets. The Group joined AIM in 2014 and in December 2015 raised gross proceeds of £40m by way of a placing to accelerate the commercialisation of its innovative technology across global laundry markets and to further develop its patented technology for other identified industrial and domestic processes.
