Environmental Impact
Waste collection & prevention
Collecting ocean-bound plastic is in itself a service to the environment. But even more important is to prevent new plastic from ending up in the environment to begin with. That's why we also put a lot of effort towards educational projects and the creation of local waste management infrastructures. Together with our partners we invest in warehouses, collection hubs, and logistics to create long-lasting impact and resilient systems for generations to come.

social impact
Job creation & social security
We couldn't do anything without the hardworking people at the front of this issue: The fishermen collecting the plastic and the workers at our social enterprises who sort the waste.
Hence, creating jobs, paying fair wages and in some instances providing housing and assistance with social security is as important to us as is cleaning up the ocean.
