Empowering Fishing Communities With a More Circular Solution
The NetPlus recycling program supports cleaner, healthier coastal communities by improving waste infrastructure, creating local employment opportunities, and funding environmental non-profits. Keeping plastic pollution out of the ocean creates a positive ripple effect in the communities where we work.

Reducing Plastic Pollution
Fishing nets are considered one of the most harmful forms of ocean plastic pollution. When abandoned or lost at sea, they can entangle marine life, harm coral and seabed habitats, and break down into microplastics. That's why we take a proactive approach by capturing nets before they can potentially end up in the environment.

Projects
Community Projects Powered by NetPlus
Every brand partnership helps us drive local impact in the communities where we work. The more nets we recycle, the more funding we can direct to local environmental non-profits. Here’s a snapshot of some community projects we supported in 2024.
Chile Solar PV
Talcahuano, Chile
We implemented a 10 kWh Solar PV system at Escuela básica San Vicente in Talcahuano. This system provides the school with green energy and reduces the power bill. The reduction of this power bill is reinvested into the school for extracurricular activities such as sports and arts. In addition, educational sessions were given to the school's environmental group, promoting environmental consciousness throughout the community.
Ecuador Leatherback Project
Jaramijó, Ecuador
The Leatherback Project is an initiative dedicated to safeguarding sea turtles in areas with a high risk for bycatch. This program collaborates with local fishermen to provide them with LED technology to prevent unintentional capture. By increasing visibility, the program preserves the livelihoods of Jaramijó's fishing community while protecting ocean marine life.
Mexico Tortoise Project
Guaymas, Mexico
The Mis Océanos Project is a three-part effort focused on raising awareness about ocean conservation and aiding the center's rehabilitation efforts. We held educational workshops about the Gulf of California, its fauna, and the impact of pollution. Using 3D models and prepared specimens, students were engaged in hands-on educational activities. Additionally, we constructed cages to rehabilitate birds and small mammals, increasing the center's capacity during high-demand periods.
Peru Education Program
Coishco, Peru
Working with a local school in Coishco, Peru, we improved an artificial wetland to handle increased water volume by cleaning filters, adding stones, pruning reeds, and enhancing the overflow system. We also provided them with the Uayki system: a low-power, sustainable digital library solution designed for schools and community spaces without reliable internet. This grants them access to educational resources and development opportunities while eliminating the need for constant internet or ongoing payments.
