An artificial island constructed from plastic polymers collected from the around the world, our ambition is not to add to the pollution in our seas but instead make use of the materials mankind has discarded into them.

We recycle everything, using our on-island recycling facility we turn our everyday materials into materials for tomorrow and beyond. Materials that wash up on our island are collected and also sent straight to the recycling facility.
No smoking! One cigarette filter can take over 100 years to degrade, polluting our oceans and killing marine life. We are therefore a 100% smoke free island.
Our intelligent monitoring systems will power off parts of the island when not in use, this not only conserves energy but reduces unnecessary light pollution.
During the day our solar farm will power everything on the island and charge our batteries for use after hours.
All structures on the island are built using recycled materials or wood from our on-island forests.
All food on the island is grown on our farm or responsibly sourced from the seas surrounding the island.
A fully sustainable forest on the island, if a tree is felled or falls it's replaced with a new sapling. In addition to this we run a 20 year management plan for our trees, meaning we plan when a tree can be felled and this ensures a replacement sapling is never far behind.
Rain water is collected and stored in our submerged tanks, as our collection pods are the highest point on the island we are able to use gravity to pump the water back up from the collection chambers whenever required.

Note: Any similarity to any other island on Earth or known or unknown planetary satellite within the known or unknown galaxy is purely coincidental. No plastic was used, animals harmed or intentional distress caused to man, beast or inanimate objects in the creation of this website. This website is intended to highlight the hypocrisy of civilisation and desire to use and abuse natural resources but the reluctance to re-use the artificial products created to feed the unrelenting demand but instead to use the oceans of the planet as natural transportation to permanently and detrimentally effect us all.
