What makes a Professional Membership unique?
Guaranteed environmental & social Impact
Environmental Impact: Every bottle purchased = 1 bottle removed from the environment.
Social Impact: With each bottle funded, community members exchange gathered plastic for income and social benefits.
Each membership with Plastic Bank is not about one-off beach cleaning endeavours, or specialized machinery intercepting plastic waste in the ocean and seas. We stop plastic before it reaches the ocean.
Your Professional Membership funds an ongoing human endeavour of over 53,792 community members like Juhari gathering plastic every day and exchanging it for income to rise above poverty. Your business is not only cleaning the environment but crucially helping members and their families afford a better life.

All plastic offsets are secured by our proprietary blockchain-secured platform which offers end-to-end traceability. Plastic Bank assigns unique ownership of the entire transaction chain, from the member who collects the plastic to the processor who recycles it through Plastic Bank’s proprietary blockchain. This offers traceability of collection bonuses awarded to members, confirms material recycling at our processor partner facilities, and offers proof of social impact. Every transaction has a unique claim ID number that can only be owned by one purchaser.
One kilogram of plastic is equivalent to 50 (500ml) single-use plastic bottles, based on our Bottle2KG research study involving over 100 collection branches across the Philippines and Indonesia. Learn more here about our research!
