The ECOALF Foundation's Upcycling the Oceans project is an unprecedented worldwide adventure that has already removed over 1700 tonnes of plastic waste from the bottom of the oceans with the support of over 4000 fishermen.
Bracenet collects discarded fishing nets, has them upcycled into fabric and then produces unique Bracenets, dog leashes, keychains, and rings in workshops that provide employment opportunities to disabled persons.
Klättermusen is a Swedish outdoor clothing company producing waterproof jackets, pants and backpacks made at least partly from recycled polyamide. The polyamide is created from post-industrial waste including packaging materials from factories, old carpets and discarded industrial fishing nets.
ECOALF is a Spanish fashion company with a very keen interest in circularity and sustainability. It focuses on developing innovative methods to produce fabric that does not hurt the planet.
