We're a purpose-driven business that has removed over 40 million pounds of trash from the ocean, rivers, and coastlines.
About us
4ocean is a mission-driven for-profit business, dedicated to ending the ocean plastic crisis. Over 30 million pounds of trash removed from the world's oceans, rivers, and coastlines since 2017! Founded In 2017, 4ocean was created with the mission to sell a product that would enable the company to fund a worldwide cleanup initiative. This is how our first product, the 4ocean bracelet, was born. Made from recycled materials, every bracelet purchased funds the removal of five pounds of trash from the ocean and coastlines. In less than 6 years, we have sold enough bracelets to enable us to pull over 30 million pounds of trash from the ocean. Bracelet sales are just the beginning. We are building an assortment of high quality, sustainably-made products that will help people reduce their dependence on single-use plastic, reuse the materials we collect from the ocean, and celebrate the 4ocean brand and ocean-conscious lifestyle. Beyond our products, we combat the ocean plastic crisis through technology, cleanups, influence, and education. We are a for-profit business, because we believe in creating sustainable, profitable business models around cleaning the ocean rather than relying on external funding. Our ocean clean-up operations, currently in the U.S., Guatemala, and Indonesia, are meticulously documented and audited for transparency, and are regularly expanding to new locations and deploying new clean-up technologies. As of May 2023, our operations employ hundreds of people around the world, pulling trash seven days a week.

Come clean ghost nets with us! 🌊💪 These abandoned fishing nets, made of non-biodegradable materials, pose a huge risk to marine life. If left behind, they get swept back into the ocean, trapping fish and harming the ecosystem. With the waves crashing in and tangled branches everywhere, it wasn’t easy—but together, we made it happen! 💙🌍

🌊 2,633 lbs of waste removed from the ocean today! 🌍 Among the trash, we collected an astonishing 1,355 cigarette butts. These small but harmful remnants disrupt the beauty of our beaches and threaten marine life with toxic chemicals and microplastics. Cigarette butts may seem tiny, but each one leaches heavy metals and up to 7,000 chemicals into our oceans. To highlight the impact of cigarette waste on marine animals, our team created a mural of a whale and a turtle using these collected butts. 🐋🐢 This artwork stands as a reminder of the importance of protecting our oceans and the creatures who call them home. Together, we can make a difference! 💙 #BeachCleanup #SaveOurSeas #ProtectMarineLife #StopOceanPollution

We had the best time hosting a beach cleanup with our Certified Cleanup Partner, U.S. Polo Assn. (USPA Global)! 🌊 Thank you for your incredible support and commitment to the clean ocean movement.
The U.S. Polo Assn. (USPA Global) Team participated in our annual Beach Cleanup with 4ocean PBC, where we all “played our part” in removing almost 50 pounds of trash and plastic from a local beach in Lake Worth, Florida. Through USPA Life, U.S. Polo Assn.’s overarching sustainability initiative, we’ve been working toward sustainable solutions that aim to protect people and the planet through impact-focused product design, and our annual beach cleanup is just one way that we contribute. Since partnering with 4ocean in 2021, U.S. Polo Assn. has successfully removed over 210,000 pounds of trash from the world’s oceans, rivers, and coastlines! Thank you to our Global Team for volunteering their time to clean our beaches with 4ocean. . . #USPoloAssn #USPALife #PlayYourPart #LiveAuthentically #EnvironmentalImpact #Sustainability #Partnerships #Global #Authenticity #PalmBeachCounty #BeachCleanup #TeamWork #GivingBack #Ocean #Volunteer
