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
Not the ocean’s real killer
Southern resident orca K35 breaches en route to Salish Sea, California
Beached orca died with stomach full of plastic, South Africa
Orcas are nicknamed “killer whales” because they have a reputation for being ferocious predators, but these highly intelligent, deeply social, and enormously powerful animals are actually not whales at all. They’re the largest member of the dolphin family.
Orcas in the wild face many threats including ocean plastic, chemical pollution, entanglement in marine debris, noise pollution, commercial hunting, captivity, decreased prey, and climate change.
The Southern Resident orcas of the Pacific Northwest are a microcosm that shows us the impact of these threats and just how dire the need for action really is.
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.
