Closing the Loop on Plastic Pollution with Plastic Bank
At @BambuuBrush, we’re thrilled to announce a powerful partnership in our mission to reduce plastic pollution: we've helped fund the recovery of 10,000 ocean-bound plastic bottles, thanks to our partnership with Plastic Bank.
This initiative not only keeps plastic out of our oceans but also supports communities around the world through ethical recycling programs. It’s another big step in our mission to eliminate 1,000,000 kg of plastic toothbrushes from circulation by 2030.
What is Plastic Bank?
Plastic Bank is a global social enterprise that builds ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities where plastic pollution is most severe. Their model is simple but transformative:
-
🌍 Stop ocean plastic at the source
-
