Our Oceans. Our Legacy.

LEGACY PLASTIC™

Legacy Plastic™ transforms ocean, shoreline and marine industrial recovered plastics into performance products.

Legacy Plastic™

Legacy Plastic is a high-grade 100% post-consumer processed plastic recovered from used marine gear, coastal shorelines and our oceans for use in the manufacturing of new value-added, durable products.

Legacy Plastic is more than just plastic. It is a vehicle for demonstrating your company’s leadership in advancing the plastic circular economy and educating consumers about the impacts of plastics on our environment, oceans and marine life.

Ocean Legacy Plastic Licensing

To ensure that Legacy Plastic is used in value-added products that foster closed loop thinking and do not perpetuate single-use applications, Ocean Legacy applies a set of 12 selection criteria in determining appropriate applications for Legacy Plastic™ in order to promote the plastic circular economy.

Legacy Plastic™ is sold through a licensing system with all products available exclusively to licensees. Accessing Legacy Plastic and associated names, logos and copyright materials, requires that all members of the supply chain (including brand owners and manufacturers) sign a licensing agreement. All licensees are required to communicate their support for Legacy Plastic.

Legacy Plastic™ can be used for almost anything regular plastic is used for! The notable difference is that our plastic is 100% recycled, recovered from ocean and shoreline expeditions. Currently, we have several companies doing great things with our ocean recovered recycled plastic:
