Each bottle purchased funds the collection of 1000 plastic bottles worth of ocean-bound plastic. This is equivalent to 11.4kg or 25lbs of plastic. This is made possible by supporting plastic collectors via an efficient blockchain verified plastic collection system.

All funds are sent to Plastic Bank, at a fixed rate for every bottle sold. 70% of funds go to plastic collectors. 30% goes to the development of plastic collection infrastructure where the world needs it most.

Thousands of collectors who are currently signed up with our partner Plastic Bank are paid to collect and deposit plastic. We want to grow this to a global team of millions of plastic collectors and increase awareness on solving the issue by tackling the root of the problem.

We currently collect plastic with help from partner Plastic Bank in Haiti, the Philippines, Indonesia and Brazil.

Great question. It is mismanaged plastic waste (MMPW) that is either on coastlines or in proximity to waterways. When the seasonal rain arrives this plastic is flushed out into the ocean.

Unfortunately there is way too much plastic and it will take years to combat the issue. A growing middle class, increasing plastic consumption and little waste infrastructure in many developing regions means that ocean plastic input is expected to increase from one truck per minute to four trucks per minute by 2060.

We are working with the latest blockchain technology from IBM Linux ONE which guarantees transparency of all plastic collected every time you buy an Ocean Bottle. You can find out more about Social Plastic and how this works here.

The Ocean Bottle can be cleaned as much as you like. Since our bottle is dishwasher safe, feel free to remove the cap, open the larger opening, take out the gasket and place all the pieces in the dishwasher. If you want to wash by hand, we recommend washing your bottle with warm water and soap after use and drying and storing it with the top off.
