WE OPENED OUR EYES…

5 years ago, we witnessed the invasion and pollution of plastic in seas and oceans after living in Asia for a few years. Those beaches littered with plastic waste awakened something in us. 

The need to find a solution to make the oceans clean again – and stop the environment from suffering – was growing inside us more and more. 

In November 2019, the idea of Gravity Wave was born, a social entrepreneurship project that arose not only from the need to contribute to making a positive impact on the planet but also from the passion for entrepreneurship and forming a team of people who wanted to change the world.

CREATED FOR ONE PURPOSE: TO PROTECT THE OCEAN

WE CAN NOT DO THIS ON OUR OWN

But together, we can! Cleaning up the sea is possible thanks to Enaleia, our partners in Greece. With a network of traditional fishermen, we clean the plastic from the bottom of the Mediterranean and compensate them financially for every kilo they collect. Without a doubt, collaboration with companies, organisations, and individuals is the cornerstone of this project.

OUR MISSION IS TO REVALUE

A big part of our goal with Gravity Wave is to transform 100% of the plastic waste collected from the Mediterranean into sustainable furniture and products.

We team up with CMPLASTIK and work on manufacturing sustainable materials and developing unique pieces for our partnerships.

OCEANS, PLANET, PEOPLE

Plastic pollution is the biggest and most tangible climate change challenge. On this basis, we understand that the health of the planet, humanity, and the oceans is directly interconnected, and this is unquestionable.

We defend the sea and its ecosystems, removing plastic waste from the sea and abandoned fishing nets that endanger marine flora and fauna. In this world where we are passing by, we understand the importance of preserving the natural environment. With the utmost respect for the oceans, we are rising to the challenge by proposing solutions to restore their cycle and balance for the present and the future.

PLÁSTICO DEL MAR

We know how important it is for you to know where the products you purchase come from, and we are here to tell you. From the ENALEIA fishers that pick up the first piece of plastic from the sea to how we recycle following a circular economic system, we measure the whole process to ensure our mission becomes a reality.
