At Expedition / Units, we believe that adventure and responsibility go hand in hand. Every product we create is a step toward a more sustainable future, integrating eco-friendly materials and supporting impactful environmental initiatives. Our commitment is built on two key pillars:

1. Eco-Friendly Materials: Designed for a Better Tomorrow

Sustainability begins with what we make. That’s why we meticulously design our products using recycled and biodegradable materials to minimize environmental impact without compromising quality or durability.

• Recycled Plastic Bottles: The core body of most of our products is made from recycled PET plastic bottles, giving a second life to materials that would otherwise pollute our oceans and landfills. By repurposing these plastics, we actively reduce waste and lower the demand for virgin materials.

• Biodegradable TPU Coating: Unlike traditional synthetic coatings that take centuries to break down, our products use biodegradable Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU). This coating enhances durability while ensuring that our gear decomposes naturally over time, leaving no harmful residue in the environment.
  
  
  

How It Works

From discarded plastic waste to high-performance products:

1. Collection: Discarded plastic bottles are collected, sorted, and cleaned.
2. Processing: The plastic is shredded into small flakes and repurposed into high-quality fabric.
3. Production: Our innovative designs take shape using this upcycled material, ensuring durability and sustainability.

 

2. Supporting Environmental Initiatives: Beyond Products, Into Impact

Sustainability is not just about the materials we use—it’s about the impact we create. We take responsibility for the plastic waste problem by actively supporting environmental organizations that work toward a cleaner planet.

Our Commitment with CleanHub

We are proud to collaborate with CleanHub, an organization dedicated to removing plastic waste from the environment before it reaches the ocean. Through their initiatives, plastic is intercepted, sorted, and either recycled or disposed of responsibly to prevent pollution.

• Every Expedition / Units purchase helps remove approximately 12 plastic bottles from the environment.
• We are committed to collecting over 1,000 kg of plastic waste every year through CleanHub.

The Plastic Exchange Bali

Before our work with CleanHub, we actively supported The Plastic Exchange Bali, a community-driven initiative that promotes a circular economy and environmental education.

• Empowering Local Communities: Villagers collect plastic waste and, in return, receive rice to feed their families.
• Tangible Impact: With the support of our customers, we helped recycle 4,000 kg of plastic and donated 1,000 kg of rice to local communities.
