Your questions, answered

What is the 4ocean Partnerships Program?

The 4ocean Partnerships Program empowers businesses to lead in sustainability by showcasing their commitment to a cleaner ocean and reduced environmental plastic pollution. With options like Plastic Neutrality, Pull-A-Pound, or Ocean Cleanup, businesses can align with impactful initiatives that resonate with their customers while creating measurable environmental change

How do I know that 4ocean is truly removing plastic from the ocean?

Transparency is at the core of what we do. Every pound of plastic we remove is tracked and verified through a detailed reporting process that includes geo-tagged photos (before, during and after), collection logs, and independent third-party audits.

Can I trace the plastic that 4ocean collects?

Yes! Our traceability program ensures that all collected plastic is documented with information on who collected it, where it was collected, and when. Geo-tagged photos are also captured before, during, and after each cleanup effort to maintain accountability.

Are 4ocean’s cleanup efforts independently verified?

Yes, our operations are certified by recognized organizations such as 1% for the Planet, Ocean Positive, BBB, and A A Garg & Co. We also undergo independent audits to verify our claims and maintain credibility and we are a B Corp, which means we are held to much higher standards.

What kind of reports will my company receive as a 4ocean partner?

As a partner, you’ll receive comprehensive reports with imagery detailing the amount of plastic removed, the locations of our cleanup efforts, and the environmental and social impact of your contribution. These reports can be used to demonstrate your company’s commitment to sustainability.

How does 4ocean ensure the sustainability of its cleanup efforts?

We focus on long-term sustainability by employing local cleanup crews, investing in community infrastructure, and continually improving our processes through partnerships and innovation. Your support helps maintain and expand these efforts.

Can my company’s involvement be highlighted in 4ocean’s work?

Absolutely! We offer co-branding opportunities, custom marketing materials, and exclusive content to showcase your company’s partnership with 4ocean. This can include branded bracelets, social media features, email mentions, and website coverage.

What happens to the plastic after it’s collected?

Collected plastic is sorted and either recycled, upcycled, or repurposed into sustainable products. In cases where recycling is not possible, we ensure responsible disposal methods in compliance with environmental standards. It is also stored in our facilities to turn back into products that are not single-use plastics in partnerships with companies across the world.

Do you collect all types of waste?

Yes. Our primary focus is cleaning the ocean and not just on high-impact, high-value plastics. This approach ensures we collect the most harmful pollutants that destroy our ocean. We operate with a "No Trash Left Behind" mentality.

What type of partnership is right for me?

Getting started is easy. Contact our partnerships team at partnerships@4ocean.com to discuss your goals and choose the program that aligns with your company’s sustainability efforts and your budget. Together, we’ll create a measurable impact and help protect the world’s oceans.

What are the next steps after my partnership starts?

Based on your partnership level, you’ll be assigned a dedicated concierge to assist with asset collection, approvals, and tailored marketing guidance for your unique partnership. From the moment you sign up, we’ll guide you through every step of the process, ensuring your partnership shines by effectively showcasing your sustainability story.
