WE BELIEVE IN MAKING POSITIVE
W-A-V-E-S
We redesign a supply chain where waste has value in order to create a sustainable and scalable solution that reduces marine plastic and improve the lives of marginalised coastal communities living in biodiversity hotspots of developing countries

We collaborate with coastal communities to recover plastic waste, ensuring it doesn’t return to the ocean. Fishing involves 10% of Ghanaians population has been seriously damaged by the plastic contamination.

SUPPORTING THE UNSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
OUR IMPACT
From our supply chain to products manufactured with 100% Upsea™ up-cycled marine plastic, we actively contribute to 6 of the 17 Sustainable development goals that were formally adopted in September 2015 by the UN General Assembly with the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development.
SEA2SEE CONTRIBUTES
ALLEVIATION OF POVERTY ACROSS LOW INCOME FISHERMEN COMMUNITIES
Every waste collector in West Africa will get 1€ for every 5kg collected.
BUILDING A CLEAN- UP FAMILY TO INCREASE EMPLOYMENT
We are currently increasing by 200% the income of 500 families of fishermen involved in the collection of plastic on coastal areas.
FOCUS ON CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Pair text with an image to focus on your chosen product, collection, or blog post. Add details on availability, style, or even provide a review.
COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS IMPACTS
The use of our UPSEA™ recycled raw material means 30% to 80% less carbon footprints, less water, and no petrol usage.
1 TON OF PLASTIC GEAR RESCUED = 125 TONSOF FISH SAVED
Collecting marine plastic and preventing it from decomposing in the Ocean has a direct impact on marine life.
PARTNERSHIP FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Teamwork to reach our goals. Thanks to the different partners involved in the transformation of waste to products, we are able to prove that circular economy is possible, even in the fashion industry.
