Naked Filter

Naked’s story is a classic startup tale that began over 15 years ago on the shores of Long Island, New York. Stony Brook University professors, Dr. Ben Hsiao and Dr. Ben Chu – the “Bens” – conducted over 10 years of R&D and proved it’s possible to use electro-spinning in order to manufacture water filtration membrane made from nanofibers. After 5 more years of experimentation and refinement, several rounds of funding, a successful Kickstarter campaign, and a TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Battlefield victory, Naked Filter now manufactures the world’s best water filtration cartridges.
