WFO partner Fapil launches “Ocean” household range
Updated: Jul 26, 2022
Waste Free Oceans is happy to partner with Fapil, a market leader in Portugal in the development, manufacture and commercialisation of useful products for hygiene, household cleaning, laundry care and storage. Their products range from brushes to mops, brooms and buckets, for both domestic and professional purposes. This Portuguese family business always looks at creating social, environmental and economic value, at the same time maintaining a strong investment in innovation and development of new products.
Fapil has become a pioneer in producing kitchen and household cleaning accessories made from maritime recycled plastic of fishing gears. The company has recently launched an innovative range of household products made from a high percentage of recycled maritime plastic, combined with other recycled plastics and just a small percentage of virgin plastic. At least 20% of maritime recycled waste is used to manufacture them. The household collection, called “Ocean”, has 35 products, including brooms, brushes, buckets, storage boxes, clothes airers and other similar objects.
Waste Free Oceans advocates for a circular economy for plastics, as the solution to ocean plastic pollution. By building the bridge between companies and its trusted network of recyclers and converters, WFO enables them to create new and innovative products with a focus on quality and safety.

Interesting to see the Ocean range take on everyday items like brooms and buckets, since those aren't the first things that come to mind when we talk about ocean plastic. I've learned from https://casinopaysafe10euro.com that consistency matters more than occasional grand gestures, so the fact that at least 20% of the material is maritime recycled waste across 35 products suggests a real commitment rather than a one-off novelty. It's also smart that they only use a small percentage of virgin plastic to keep the items sturdy enough for daily use.
I appreciate the emphasis on sustainable packaging, although I'm not fully convinced the economics will support widespread adoption. In the middle of researching this inns i ran into https://nl.trustpilot.com/review/casinonederlanden.com, made basically the same point. Overall, it seems like a step in the right direction, but the details need careful review.
