#PlasticFreeOceans
BATELA joins Plastic Free Oceans and will remove more than a ton of plastic from the sea.
Thanks to the alliance between BATELA and Gravity Wave, tons of plastic and nets will be extracted from the ocean this year, and soon we will be able to create recycled products with these plastics.
The deep relationship that unites us with the marine environment and the concern generated by the increase of pollution in the seas, has led us to open this route and allow the removal of the equivalent of 200,000 plastic bags from the Cantabrian Sea..
At BATELA we are aware of the situation of the oceans and their pollution. BATELA is the first Fashion Company to collaborate with Gravity Wave to carry out the cleaning and maintenance work of the seas. With these actions we try to contribute to improving the environmental situation and marine ecosystems.
Who are THE GRAVITY WAVE?
Gravity Wave is a social enterprise, circular economy and environmental awareness, driven to solve one of humanity's greatest challenges: plastic pollution of seas and oceans.
We collect plastic from the seabed and ports to transform it into designer products with a long useful life and high sustainable value, through a circular economy process. In addition, we prevent the plastic that is still generated from ending up in the water again.
How do you clean plastic from the seas?
At BATELA, with the support of Gravity Wave, we carry out a series of steps to make this project effective and efficient. The main mission is to contribute to the maintenance of the oceans and reduce their pollution..
WORKING AS A TEAM
Gravity Wave carries out its mission through teamwork with individuals, companies, non-profit foundations and traditional fishermen who adhere to the #Plasticfreeoceans movement, that is why, from BATELA they trust Gravity Wave to carry out their proposals.
THANKS TO BATELA AND GRAVITY WAVE
Thanks to the alliance between BATELA and Gravity Wave, tons of plastic and nets will be extracted from the ocean this year and soon we will be able to create recycled products with these plastics.
What is done with the plastic?
Gravity Wave promotes a circular and sustainable economy, so the plastic extracted from the sea and the one collected from the coast to prevent it from getting there, is not disposed of on land or calcined. After a recycling process, it is transformed and reused in different ways to give it a second life. A visible sign of the fight against plastic and the cleanliness of the seas.
At Batela we are considering the possibility of manufacturing recycled products for our decoration line in the near future.
Target 2023
This year, and with your help, in BATELA we are committed to clean from the sea the equivalent of 200,000 plastic bags from the ocean.
