Every year 8-12 million tonnes of plastic pollution enters the ocean because there is little incentive for that plastic to be collected instead of dumped or littered. That’s where POLLAST!C comes in. By recycling plastic pollution into packaging that businesses need, we are able to pay people in these communities to collect it for us and keep it out of nature!

Pollution and poverty are often inextricably linked – and in the communities where we work, waste management infrastructure is often non-existent. Plastic rubbish is usually littered, burnt or buried (in piles for livestock and dogs to ferret in).
By working closely and responsibly with communities in these areas, we can help them clean up their environment AND have positive social impact. When we commit to purchasing the plastic pollution they collect, we provide a consistent source of income and help raise their standards of living.

Join Becs as she takes us behind the scenes to see the work this company is doing to clean up plastic pollution in Southeast Asia. It's incredible to see the scale of the impact not only on the environment, but also to meet some of the individuals they are able to give employment to.
By funding the collection of abandoned plastic pollution and recycling it into mailing satchels, garment bags and even pallet wrap, we're not only stopping it from becoming micro-plastics, but also stopping companies from having to make brand new plastic packaging instead. Only then will we stop plastic from clogging our landfills (at best) and our oceans (at worst).
Independent Life Cycle Analysis has shown POLLAST!C mailers to be the lowest carbon form of packaging currently commercially available.
They have a CO₂ footprint 75% less than that of a traditional plastic mailer and 30% less even than 100% recycled paper.
