The Ocean Cleanup

to clean the world's oceans of plastic

Collaboration with The Ocean Cleanup

ELDI partners with The Ocean Cleanup, a nonprofit initiative developing systems to remove plastic from the world’s oceans. In 2022, ELDI supplied a 2.5 km system, System 03, tailored for marine plastic collection and adapted for gentle operation in ocean conditions.

  • Joint effort: Developed and delivered System 03 in collaboration with The Ocean Cleanup to collect plastic in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
  • Design and operation: The system is engineered with safety features to allow marine life to escape while collecting surface debris.
  • Operational focus: ELDI supports ongoing operation and maintenance of the system to ensure functionality and reduce downtime.
  • Shared context: Every year, millions of tonnes of plastic enter the oceans; this effort aligns with broader work to address marine pollution.
