As plastic has become ubiquitous, plastic waste in the environment has become one of our biggest global challenges. The Sak supports Social Plastic® - ethically recovered plastic that fights ocean pollution while improving the lives of those who help collect it.
Ethical Recycling Practices
By revealing the value in waste plastic, Plastic Bank helps reduce global poverty while stopping ocean plastic from entering our seas and waterways.
Improving Lives
With more than 21,000 collectors, Plastic Bank allows plastic to be exchanged for rewards or money to help lift people out of poverty by providing life-improving items and services. These collectors receive a premium above the market rate for plastic.
Social Plastic®
Collected material is reborn as Social Plastic® which is reintegrated into products and packaging. This creates a closed-loop supply chain while helping those who collect it.
Together with 21,000+ collectors, Plastic Bank has recycled
31,124,187 pounds
of ocean bound plastic.
