FULL TRACEABILITY ACROSS THE SUPPLY CHAIN

SCAN THE QR CODE ON YOUR PRODUCT & EXPLORE THE MAP TO SEE WHERE WE FOUND THE NETS & HOW WE RECYCLED THEM IN OUR UK-BASED MICROFACTORY

Others talk about sustainability. We show you exactly how we do it: no vague claims, no greenwashing. Scan the QR code on your product to track the trash and explore our pioneering product traceability using the map above, or read about the story of each batch below.

Every Ecotribo product we have made is traceable via the stamp and QR code on the product— from the beach it was collected from, to our solar-powered, UK-based microfactory, to the moment you hold it in your hand.

If a manufacturer claims it's sustainable, ask them to demonstrate it.

Batch 009

Over 1/2 Ton (600kg) of Recycled Marine waste transformed into our ocean plastic products

Our recycled plant pots and ocean plastic products are made from abandoned or lost fishing nets found around the British Isles. We track the nets’ journey from the sea to our solar-powered UK microfactory, where they are transformed into beautiful, functional eco-plant pots and sustainable products with a purpose.

We believe in transparency and celebrating the volunteers who help us make a difference.

 

When we say it's sustainable, we mean it's made in the UK, in a solar-powered factory, using ocean plastics, and we mean 100% recycled plastic sourced from UK shores. So next time ask your manufacturer what they mean when they say its sustainable.

 

Together, we can clean our coasts and plant positivity.
