Ocean Plastic Recovery

At PlasticBank we are recovering millions of kilograms of ocean plastic and helping thousands of under-served peoples every month. We are turning plastic into gold by revolutionizing the world’s recycling systems to create a regenerative, inclusive, and circular plastic economy.

We build ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities, and reprocess the materials for reintroduction into the global manufacturing supply chain.

Collectors receive a premium for the materials they collect to better help them provide basic family necessities such as groceries, school tuition, and health insurance.

Collected material is reborn as Social Plastic® which is reintegrated into products and packaging. This creates a closed-loop supply chain while helping those who collect it.
Our proprietary blockchain platform secures the entire transaction and provides real-time data visualization: allowing for transparency, traceability, and rapid scalability.

Our Social Plastic® feedstock is used in our partner’s products, preventing the need for new plastic creation. Our goal is to override the market’s need for virgin plastic materials by providing ethically recovered material that also transfers its value to communities in need.
