RECYCLED FROM THE SEA
Our Thermocline range, swimwear and OceanPositive rashguards are made using recycled nylon from ghost fishing nets and other discarded waste.
‘Ghost nets’ amount to over 600,000 tonnes of lost gear every year. The main hazard is to marine life – from invertebrates to large marine mammals. They continue to fish, long after they have been abandoned, and account for countless lives. The netting, very slow to degrade, scrubs coral, creating a desolate seascape where they are dragged over the reef by shifting currents.
Now, all over the world, dive teams are removing these ghost nets from the wrecks and reefs, often at great depths, and bringing them up to the surface where they can be recycled and spun into nylon yarn.
“THIS IS A FANTASTIC IDEA, ONE WHICH DEMONSTRATES WHAT WE CAN, AND SHOULD, DO FOR THE OCEANS”.
