This Matt Green "Bloom" Ocean Plastic Pot and saucer set is made using only 100% fishing net collected in Scotland from the beaches of Eigg, Muck, Rum, Canna, Coll and the Isle of Skye.
We partnered with The Scottish Islands Federation Marine Litter Group, The Isle of Skye Beach Cleans and The Scottish Coastal Clean Up Initiative, to remove a staggering ten tonnes of plastic waste from the beaches of Eigg, Muck, Rum, Canna, Coll and the Isle of Skye in a supported by the Ocean Recovery Project
Over 50 people from the communities of the Islands participated in the beach cleans, where any rope and net material collected was then taken to Mallaig Harbour by small boat. Over 2 tonnes of the material was identified as being able to be recycled and made into the new Ocean Plastic Pots in Scotland
The matt green colour is created when all the colours of different small bits of fishing net collected combine during the recycling process, these can also be seen in the pots once they have been made.
