Frequently Asked Questions
General Information
What are the products made of?
Plastic Waste
Polypropylene (PP), LDPE, HDPE & PET
Metal Rod on the Dish Caddy is Stainless Steel
Where is the plastic sourced?
The plastic is purchased above market price from trusted recycling aggregators in Bali. A small amount is collected from schools.
The plastic is collected by informal waste collectors from homes, small businesses, streets, river banks, and beaches
Why Indonesia? Why not Australia?
Two-fold.
- Indonesia has a plastics crisis and the need for solutions there is far greater than Australia. Much of the waste collected in Bali is from tourists, many of which are Australian.
- The economics of collection & upcycling in Indonesia mean that we can offer products affordably to SKIPPERs. Without consumer demand, the project doesn’t make sense.

Are these ocean plastic?
A small portion of plastic feedstock may be collected from beach cleanups during wet season. However, the far majority is collected on land before it gets a chance to reach the ocean.
Why is my product slightly different to the picture?
The beauty of recycled plastic is that every product is unique and has its own story. A single finished piece may feature shredded plastic from hundreds of slightly different coloured bottles and caps.
