Plastic Recycled from Ocean-Bound Sources

Ocean Bound Plastic

Turning the Tide
on Ocean Plastic

From Masagua, Guatemala, OCEANPET was built with a simple belief: plastic waste should never reach our rivers, coastlines, or oceans. We transform 100% ocean-bound plastic into high-purity recycled PET flakes, recycled PET resin pellets, and recycled plastic wood, turning a regional environmental challenge into valuable industrial materials for global markets.

Located just 45 minutes from Pacific port access, our Hot-Wash PET recycling facility combines advanced processing with solar-powered operations to deliver export-quality materials with a lower carbon footprint. Every ton we process is more than recycling — it is cleaner waterways, stronger supply chains, and a real step toward a more circular future.

At OCEANPET, we believe industry can protect the planet without compromising performance. By giving ocean-bound plastic a second life as resin, flakes, and recycled plastic wood, we help manufacturers source reliable materials while supporting the recovery of the ecosystems we all depend on.

Common Questions: Transparency & Impact

We collect Ocean-Bound plastic from rivers and strategic coastal areas within 50 kilometers of the shoreline. In collaboration with well respected and known environmental organizations, we stop plastic before it enters the open ocean.

Our advanced Hot-Wash facility in Masagua is currently under construction and scheduled to begin operations in 9 months. We are currently establishing strategic supply agreements and pre-orders with partners who want to secure their 2027 sustainable material volume.

Our process is engineered to meet EU & EU premium-grade standards, ensuring export-quality purity for the textile and thermoforming industries.

You are not just buying raw materials; you are actively saving the planet's oceans and rivers. By choosing OceanPet, your company gains a competitive edge through certified CO2 emission savings, a transparently sustainable supply chain, and the prestige of being an Ocean Guardian. We transform your procurement into a powerful environmental legacy.
