This bag is made of recycled ocean bound plastic!

Why ocean plastic? Garbage left or disposed on beaches and riverbanks ends up in the ocean eventually, adding up to the already huge plastic pollution in our seas. Once the plastic is in the ocean it is quite hard and expensive to recover it. Our approach is to collect the plastic waste before it can get into the oceans, recycle it and turn it into new bags. Thereby we protect the oceans and its marine life as well as us humans and our climate.

Learn here more how the protection of our oceans has a multitude of positive effects on our planet.

Estamos muy orgullosos de ser la primera empresa de bolsas del mundo con una cadena de suministro totalmente certificada y transparente de plástico reciclado procedente del océano.

Recycling plastic that is bound to pollute our oceans has a multitude of positive effects on our planet. Here are the four major ones:

Protecting our planet:

Protecting the oceans means protecting the planet. Plastic or microplastics in our oceans have a variety of negative effects on marine animals and us humans. But especially on the marine ecosystem and thus global warming.

Garbage as a valuable raw material:

In our profit-oriented world, producing “new” is often cheaper than recycling or repairing. Companies often do not have to carry cost for adverse effects on our environment. We want to lead the way and show that cost-effective recycling is possible.

Certification and verifiability:

Our promise to you and our planet is certified and controlled. We are proud to be the world‘s first backpack brand with a fully certified supply chain, controlled by an independent organization.

Collecting plastic generates regular income:

In our bags there is not only an ecological but also a social core: collecting plastic for the OCEAN line enables the poorest of the poor to earn a living while cleaning the environment from plastic waste. Since they often cannot read and write, they otherwise have little prospect of a regular income. The OCEAN line addresses three urgent problems at once: 1. Poverty and hunger, 2. Environmental pollution from plastic and 3. Increasing the recycling rate of raw materials instead of new production. Become a part of this change too!

We need to act now!

8 million tonnes of plastic enter our oceans every year. This plastic affects us all: its in our water, our animals and in us. Something has to be done! Prevention and cleaning is the key to it as well as building up supply chains that allows to recycle plastic in an economical as well as sustainable manner and values plastic trash as the valuable source of resources as it is.

Collecting plastic waste: earn income and clean up the environment.

So far, plastic waste has had no value in India. We are changing that and contributing to a rethinking: because collecting plastic enables those who otherwise have little chances due to a lack of education or status to earn a regular income. At the same time, these people prevent the plastic waste from entering the sea and thus protect our oceans, which gives them a sense of purpose.
