SEASTAINABILITY: MERGING SUSTAINABILITY WITH THE SEA

SEA2SEE

Collecting Ocean Waste

We collaborate with coastal communities and fishermen to recover plastic waste from oceans and shorelines. By turning discarded materials into valuable resources, we prevent marine pollution at its source.

Transforming Waste into Eyewear

Through an advanced recycling process, collected plastic is converted into UPSEA™ recycled plastic, the raw material used to craft our stylish, high-quality eyewear.

Driving Global Change

Beyond eyewear, Sea2see is building an international movement for ocean conservation. By wearing our frames, consumers actively support ethical fashion and a circular economy that protects marine life.

OUR IMPACT

Preserving our Oceans from Plastic contamination

At Sea2see Foundation our aim is to find solutions to protect marine environments from plastic pollution and contribute to the elimination of marine waste.
  • 1 out of 4 fish contains plastic
  • Plastic accounts for 90% of all trash floating on the surface of the oceans
  • 255 kg end up in the ocean every second
Reducing marine plastic by empowering coastal communities

The amount of plastic in the ocean is expected to double in the next 15 years, and by 2050, there could be more plastic in the ocean than fish (by weight).” The people most affected are those in marginalised coastal communities of the developing world.

Empowering them to take part in our cleanup provides them with a new source of income. Our cleanup collaborations remove marine waste from beaches, lakes, rivers, ports, and intercept ocean-bound plastics from coastal communities.
