Marine Plastic Recovery Network

Marine plastic bins around Malta & Gozo

We provide 10 Żibel bins at coastal areas where you can dispose of ocean plastic finds, operational 24/7.

Why Special Bins?

Once plastic enters our seas, it becomes degraded by sea salt and UV light, rendering the material brittle, fragmented, and discolored, making it largely unusable for recycling.

Our bins allow us to track and process ocean plastic separately from standard waste, maintaining a chain of custody that enables proper research, recycling and reporting to authorities.
