CLOSED-LOOP PROGRAM
We’re currently developing a circular end-of-life plan for every 4ocean product. Our aim is to eliminate waste at the end of our product lifecycle by taking back 4ocean products that our customers no longer use so they can be properly recycled or transformed into new products. Once you’re done with your 4ocean product, please reach out to our customer service team to receive a prepaid shipping label.
The 4ocean Closed-Loop Program is only available in the U.S. for now, but we plan to expand in the future.

PRODUCT STORY
Ancient creatures. Modern problems.
Leatherback sea turtle hatchling, Indonesia
Leatherback sea turtle scarred from entanglement in fishing gear, Dominican Republic
Leatherback sea turtles are the oldest turtles in the world. Their family tree can be traced back more than 100 million years to a time when dinosaurs still walked the earth. They survived even when the dinosaurs went extinct. But now this once-prevalent species is facing its own extinction.
Leatherback sea turtles are the ocean’s major jellyfish predator. As such, they’re well-adapted to consuming this slippery meal. Their mouths and throats are lined with hundreds of long, down-ward facing spines that prevent jellies from slipping out of their mouths.
But in the dark and sometimes murky waters of the ocean, plastic bags, wrappers, balloons, and other plastic debris can look and taste a lot like jellyfish. And just like jellyfish, leatherbacks can’t regurgitate plastic once they’ve ingested it. Instead, the plastic they consume becomes impacted in their gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to chronic illnesses, infections, or death.
From Bali, with love.
Hand assembled by an artisan in Bali, Indonesia.
Purchasing a 4ocean bracelet does more than clean the ocean. It also creates sustainable, living-wage jobs.
As soon as our beads, cords, and charms reach our main facility in Denpasar, Bali, a crew loads up our van and motorbikes to distribute these components to artisans in remote villages scattered across the island.
Women comprise 80 percent of this workforce. In Bali, women tend to assume the role of primary caretakers for their families, which means their job opportunities are limited. Because they’re able to hand assemble our bracelets in their homes and village centers, more women are able to join the workforce while continuing to care for their families.
