CUSTOM MEDALS & TROPHIES UK
SUSTAINABLE MEDALS & AWARDS MADE FROM RECYCLED OCEAN PLASTIC
Custom medals and trophies, designed and manufactured in the UK from reclaimed ghost fishing nets and recycled ocean plastics. Bespoke awards for sporting events, corporate awards, schools, charities and organisations.
More Than a Medal or a Trophy. It's a Story Worth Winning.
Every year, thousands of kilometres of fishing nets and ropes are lost or abandoned in our oceans. Known as ghost gear, these nets continue trapping marine life, polluting our coastlines and breaking down into harmful microplastics.
At Ecotribo, we recover this waste from beaches and coastal communities across the UK before transforming it into beautifully crafted custom medals and trophies.
Every award represents cleaner coastlines, a circular economy and proof that waste can become something extraordinary. That's a huge win for nature and for us all.
Why Choose Ecotribo Custom Medals & Trophies?
Whether you're organising a marathon, triathlon, surf competition, corporate awards evening or school sports day, your awards should reflect the values of your event.

Every Medal is Unique
