Are you looking for a great PRJ sustainable packaging option? Ocean bound plastic, referred to as reclaimed ocean plastic, is a great choice. Not only does it have a great sustainability story, but it also is very well priced and affordable for a product like single pre-rolls which usually sells at a low price point. Let's look at a few examples and also review what ocean bound plastic is.

Ocean-bound plastic is material collected within 50km of the shore line, targeting communities with no formal waste management system. This catchment area was first utilized in research by marine debris expert, Jenna Jambeck, in evaluating the source of plastic waste entering the ocean.
Studies say that by 2050, there will be more plastic in our oceans than fish. By choosing reclaimed ocean bound plastic, you are taking it upon yourself to help contribute to the removal of plastic pollution that has ended up on beaches and surrounding waterways leading to the ocean. Without collection efforts, these plastics eventually reach ocean waters and are likely to harm wildlife or even enter our food stream. Using ocean bound plastic in your packaging is one way to fight back against this trend, protecting wildlife and maintaining the integrity of our food stream.
These are just 4 options to show you what is possible when using ocean bound plastic. Want to see more options that are available? Please reach out to our sales team today by emailing wow@contempopackaging.com.
