Introducing OCEAN WASTE CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES®, a game-changing textile solution that tackles one of the most pressing environmental issues we face today: pollution of oceans by plastics. These textiles combines upcycled ocean waste plastic with post-consumer recycled plastics to create industry-leading sustainable textiles – helping clean our oceans and reducing plastic pollution worldwide.
This innovative sourcing approach allows waste to be used and transformed into amazing textiles.
Every year, more than 8 million metric tons of plastics enter our oceans1.
By 2050, there will be more plastics in the sea than fish2.

For every pound of OCEAN WASTE
CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES® fabric produced, up to half a pound of marine waste is removed from the ocean.
We partner with renown initiatives that collect, categorize, separate, clean, process and upcycle plastic ocean waste into polymer to be used as yarn, then transformed into sustainable textiles.
By upclycling ocean waste plastic, we contribute to cleaning our oceans and its shore – reducing plastic pollution worldwide.
