LET'S SAVE PLANET BLUE
The ocean is home to an abundance of life, biodiversity, and a vital source for the planet's well-being. But it's choking in plastic waste and threatening the ambiance of marine life, disrupting ecosystems and biodiversity, and if left uncollected it eventually breaks up into microplastics with potential health risks for nature and society. We need all hands on deck and immediate actions to break the plastic wave.
THAT'S WHY WE ARE TAKING ACTION
In devoting a percentage of every purchase made by Rockay customers,we are confident of seeing hugely promising results to our efforts to remove and regenerate discarded plastic waste.
We remove plastic from the ocean.

IMPROVING PEOPLE'S LIVES

Including local communities helps raise awareness of proper waste handling, it creates decent work and economic growth in the local communities, and it significantly helps improve the living conditions of the cleanup team and their families - giving broader access to better living standards, more nourishing foods, and effective medical care.
