Cumberland, RI (Wjar) – Small pieces of accentuation at home on a sprawling ground with ceiling creations, Moss Pure brings a whole new meaning to living art.
“These are not only beautiful works of living art, these are also certified air filters,” began the founder Jamie Mitri.
Using science to create a filtration system that triggers a biochemical reaction in living foam, unlike other home plant decoration options, Moss Pure does not require any regular maintenance.
“He keeps himself alive by bringing humidity and air pollutants,” said Mitri. “So, not only does it keep in life and hard, but it also becomes an effective air filter, also helping your space.”
Proud graduate of the University of Rhode Island which obtained its graduation of chemical and biology of the Kingston campus, Mitri said that it had proposed the Moss Pure concept in 2020 as part of a scientific start-up competition at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“It's just crazy that a small engineer from Rhode Island understands it,” she continued. “But it took me over a year to develop the product with the MIT and the UN.”
Since then, Moss Pure has grown up in notoriety.
Managing several innovation prizes and receiving hundreds of orders from across the country, Mitri assures that the company will remain based on Rhode Island, but admits that it will soon exceed its current garage workspace.
Governor Dan McKee and the Secretary of Commerce Liz Tanner visited the unpretentious workshop on Friday afternoon.
Unveiling plans for the latest efforts of the company, Mitri discussed the use of its foam technology, to create a natural alternative to artificial lawn fields.
