Written by the company

We transform recycled fishing nets washed up on our shores into stylish, eco-friendly plant pots and products for your home and garden. Each piece helps clean our oceans and meets the growing demand for sustainable alternatives—allowing you to protect nature while enjoying beautifully crafted designs that inspire a greener way of living. We collect ghost and fishing nets from around the UK coastline and clean, process and recycle the materials into our range of recycled Ocean Plastic Plant Pots. Each plant pot is unique, with beautiful tones and colours that mix to create an attractive and original plant pot and product. We also have carabiner key rings and park benches from the fishing nets we collect. Each of our ocean plastic products is made in a solar-powered factory in Bristol, UK, ensuring your product is the most sustainable one you can find. Each sale supports further beach cleans through our network of coastal charities and beach cleaning organisations.

Beautiful Materials, Meaningful Design, Excellent Experience

I couldn’t be happier with this pocket knife. I'm a big fan of lambsfoot pocket knives from A. Wright. The first thing that stood out to me was the handle material. Not just how it looks and feels in hand (smooth), but the story behind where it came from. I really appreciate the idea and intention behind using reclaimed and meaningful materials. It adds character and makes the knife feel truly unique.

I’m based in the United States, and the team at Ecotribo was fantastic to work with. They were extremely helpful, quick to respond, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. Shipping was fast, and everything arrived on time.

Great product, great concept, and great customer service. Highly recommended.

Excellent customer service

Sadly the plant pot I ordered was not suitable as it did not fit the holder it was intended for - there was a very tight margin. I am disappointed as the pot is of high quality and the I support that Ty and Carrie are making every effort to clean up our seas by recycling waste products dumped there.
Carrie has kindly offered me a refund as they are unable to offer me a replacement with the correct dimensions. Good customer service!

I am very happy with my new carribeaner keychain. It is super practical and I am glad it is keeping waste out of our oceans. Keep up the great work!

beautiful and sustainable products and lovely lovely guy!

Tyrone is doing an amazing thing for the planet and for us punters - creating beautiful, useful and sustainable items for us to use everyday. I bought lots of the carabiner keyrings as gifts for my child's teachers (she wanted to get something sustainable and upcycled). Great quality, really prompt communication and fast delivery. His whole operation is so sustainable - collecting his materials (ghost nets from the shores, solar powered operations etc)....was so happy to support and the teachers all loved the gifts. I am going to treat myself and friends to some of his other products sometime soon. Absolutely recommend 100%.

GHOST NETS HAUNT THE SEAS

We cannot see them because they are mainly under the sea. However, what we can see is that this worthy company is retrieving ghost nets to produce recycled goods. What a worthy effort!!! We are going to have an "under the sea" themed Christmas, and we are going to use Ecotribo's carabiners as napkin holders that our dearest and nearest can take home as mementos of Christmas 2023. Recommending Ecotribo HIGHLY, and wishing them every success.

The Ocean and Sea Change plant pots are very beautiful. The attention to detail in their design and packaging is clear. The service was great and I was kept informed from the order until the pots arrived. Their story makes them even more special!

Awesome!!

My product arrived really nicely packaged and in good time from the UK as I live in Australia. The drawing is amazing and I would highly recommend buying any product from Ecotribe! They're definitely on the forefront of sustainable products which are also really personal.
Thumbs up!!
