we are proud to partner with plastic bank to help prevent ocean-bound plastic from polluting our waterways while improving the lives of the people who collect it. for every evo retail bottle sold, the same amount of plastic is collected from the environment. collection members exchange plastic at their local branch to secure income and life-improving benefits like health, work and life insurance, school supplies, meal vouchers and more.
born in 2013 from an idea to turn plastic into worth, plastic bank is helping tackle this issue and fight poverty by supporting ethical recycling ecosystems in underdeveloped communities. not only does this system offer plastic collectors meaningful work and better opportunities, the plastic collected is then processed to give it a second life and re-enter the global supply chain.
while evo has long been committed to people-first and planet-first initiatives separately, plastic bank is an organisation equally dedicated to both. so far, we’ve prevented more than 2 million bottles from entering ocean-bound waterways.
