Plastic Waste Upcycling with Retaso
In the spirit of our commitment to more sustainable practices, Blackbough Swim is proud to introduce our latest partnership with Retaso, a dynamic social and environmental enterprise founded in the Philippines. Led by a group of young women entrepreneurs, Retaso weaves material waste into regenerative design solutions. Each product is constructed using scrap fabric donated by local businesses, refined and handcrafted by skilled seamstresses in the Philippines.
Since August 2023, Blackbough Swim has donated plastic waste to Retaso and we have decided to make it official this year by becoming a formal plastic waste upcycling donor! This commitment extends beyond our corporate values, trickling down to the dedicated individuals who form the backbone of Blackbough. Our entire team is actively involved in this recycling initiative, encouraged to be mindful of single-use plastics, and pooling our personal plastic waste to ensure less of it pollutes our oceans and harms wildlife. Through initiatives like these, we are able to pursue more sustainable business practices, emphasizing not only waste reduction but also the transformative potential of collective action.
Retaso's unique philosophy revolves around being 100% local and 100% circular. This mirrors our own commitment to supporting local communities and reducing our ecological footprint. By upcycling these would-be-waste, Retaso breathes new life into items that would otherwise contribute to landfills and environmental pollution. By supporting social enterprises like Retaso, you play a vital role in our mission. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to meaningful change. Join us in making thoughtful choices—whether through mindful purchases or reducing your single-use footprint—that collectively create a positive impact on our planet!
In Blackbough, we fully support Retaso’s values in sustainability and it is through this long-term partnership that we hope to help further advance the cause. Together, we are weaving a more vibrant and sustainable future, one stitch at a time. Thank you for joining us on this inspiring journey toward a greener world.
