#Reduce4Oceans
Un geste pour la mer Upcycling is a 3-year program, in partnership with the Fondation de la Mer, to develop plastic waste recovery channels to transform them into sustainable goods.
Thanks to this partnership, associations and startups - which have taken up the challenge of innovating from plastic waste - will be financially supported to enable them to reach a milestone in the development of their activities needed for the future we want!
THE PROJECT
It is essential today to rethink our consumption patterns to introduce more circularity. Our UPCYCLING program aims to meet this challenge by combining ecology and economy through the creation of value locally from the plastic waste collected.
The KRESK Group, through its endowment fund KRESK4OCEANS, is very proud to commit itself alongside the Fondation de la Mer.
Thanks to this alliance we have the ambition to reconcile the protection of the oceans with the development of the local economy, a real virtuous circle." Didier TABARY
Upcycling is a way to create value by recovering plastic waste and reusing it as raw material to create a new sustainable object.
It is a form of super recycling that promotes the emergence of a circular economy. These wastes, which we no longer have a use for, can be transformed into materials, and even into products of higher quality or utility.
In the Ocean, our wastes are a poison. Collected on land and sorted, it is reinvented.
