Introducing the first @sungaidesign product made from the rivers of Bali ♻️ This chair is made from 2,000 plastic bags we collected 🌊

Cleaning rivers is not as easy as just removing plastics. We deal with all sorts of weather patterns and environmental challenges, including invasive plants. Water hyacinth is a free floating plant known as one of the world’s fastest growing plants. It is very common in Indonesia’s rivers, and our teams are actively working around it to remove as much plastic from rivers as possible.

RIVERSOLE is here! 🩴♻️ The first recycled sandal made from sandals collected in Indonesia’s rivers by @Indosole - Recycled Footwear x Sungai Watch. We are launching with a limited 1,000 sandals only. Secure yours today at www.indosole.com

Plastic bags is the type of plastic that we find the most of in Indonesia’s rivers. From the 844,936 kg of trash collected in 2023, 36% of it was plastic bags. We are very excited to be up-cycling these bags through @sungaidesign into long lasting products. From a problem to possibility — A testament to show that we can protect our planet, one up-cycled plastic bag at a time.

From our 268 barriers installed, we catch an average of 15 kg of trash per barrier per day. Our barriers are a cheap and efficient way to stop plastic from going into the ocean. Wondering what’s inside of the 15 kg of trash? Here is a quick breakdown. For more information on our waste breakdown, head over to our 2023 impact report, available at the link in our bio.
