Why global communities gather plastic
“The benefits received through the plastic exchange are used to provide for our daily needs. The most important thing we receive is health insurance for my husband’s treatment.”
Atmawati, Indonesia
“Even at my age, I am trying to provide for myself, in my own little way of collecting scrap, I can find a way to relieve hunger. It became a lot easier when I was able to join Plastic Bank.”
Elizabeth, Philippines
“When I see people littering, I’m shocked by how carelessly they do it with trash bins all around. But I pick it up because it has value for me.”
Rasamee, Thailand
Over 500 businesses are empowering change; here’s why:
“We asked our teammates, our partners, we asked our board, our business partners, our vendors, what’s important to them? This is important. This is really important to people from an investor level to a consumer level. There’s really no getting around it.”
Emily Clark
Director of Corporate Communications and Experience
“It’s great to be able to scale our impact and return plastic waste into recycling cycles, while supporting communities around the world.”
Philipp Kust
Social Impact Manager
“We wanted to be consistent with our partners all year round and just be able to tie into one strong message for families. Plastic Bank is really aligned with our values on conservation and community growth; partnering was a natural tie into our brand and product.”
