As part of its ongoing collaboration with environmental body Parley for the Oceans, Adidas has launched a project which aims to find ways to turn ocean plastic waste into high-tech sportswear. Its initial efforts were unveiled in December 2015 with a pair of prototype 3D printed trainers created from recycled ocean rubbish. Although those were never available for purchase, Adidas has since developed the Ultraboost Uncaged Parley trainers, created using yarn made from ocean plastic waste, which became available to buy in 2017. The campaign has also seen the sportswear brand team up with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich football clubs to create football jerseys made from Parley Ocean Plastic. These fully functioning, technical kits were worn by the teams during league matches beginning with Bayern Munich's meeting with TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on November 5, 2016.

It was a deep love of the ocean that led scientist Dr Max Huber to create the original Creme de la Mer face cream and the company continues to celebrate this heritage with the annual release of a limited edition Creme de la Mer Blue Heart jar. A portion of the sales from each jar go to support Creme de la Mer's ocean conservation projects, including a partnership with the National Geographic Society, supporting the inaugural Boat International Ocean Awards and an art auction with Sotheby's and Project 0.

Online surf, skate and skiwear retailer Surfdome has long been a supporter of ocean sustainability projects and in 2014 launched its own #2MinuteBeachClean project with writer and television presenter Martin Dorey. Based on the 'every little helps' line of thinking, the project asks visitors to beaches around the world to remove as much or as little plastic litter as they have time for because every piece removed makes a difference. As well as publicising beach cleans, Surfdome has replaced its plastic mailing bags with recycled cardboard boxes printed with information about the campaign and implemented a greater focus on selling sustainable clothing. Alongside this Surfdome has also founded the Plastic Project which sends explorers and documentarians to the remotest coasts on earth to discover how plastic pollution is devastating these otherwise untouched areas and shed light on the importance of human intervention in this crisis.

One of the best marine-safe suncreams on the market, Aethic Sovee was created with the express purpose of reducing coral damage caused by chemical water pollution.

Argentina-based brand Mafia is the brainchild of professional kite surfer Marcos Mafia and his sister Paz and gives worn out windsurf and boat sails a new lease of life by turning them in to bags. Having found huge success in the US and Japan with their colourful designs and hard-wearing accessories, the brand is now expanding to the UK and Europe.

Handmade in California, not only do Mafia's bags stop sails heading to landfill or polluting the oceans, but because there are so many different sail designs each one is completely unique.
