SEARCULAR is proud to be funded as a part of the European Commission Mission Restore our Oceans and Waters programme, and is a signatory of the Mission Charter. Throughout the project, we have had the opportunity to work alongside several other projects working to create healthier oceans for people and planet. Just some of these projects are highlighted below.
Catchgreen
Catchgreen develops biodegradable alternatives to conventional plastics used in ocean-based industries. Sectors such as aquaculture, fisheries, and maritime operations rely heavily on plastic equipment like ropes, nets, and lines that can persist in marine environments for decades. Catchgreen’s goal is to provide practical, high-performance solutions that reduce this long-term environmental impact without compromising functionality.
Our biodegradable materials are engineered to deliver the strength, durability, and handling characteristics required for demanding marine applications. Designed as drop-in replacements for conventional plastics, Catchgreen products integrate easily into existing operations, allowing companies to adopt more sustainable materials without changing their infrastructure or workflows.
The company collaborates closely with industry partners to ensure products meet real operational needs. Catchgreen solutions are already being tested and deployed in commercial environments, including aquaculture operations, where they have demonstrated reliable performance throughout full production cycles.
As ocean industries continue to grow globally, the demand for sustainable materials is increasing. Catchgreen aims to support this transition by offering scalable alternatives that help companies reduce plastic pollution while maintaining productivity and efficiency.
By combining performance, sustainability, and commercial practicality, Catchgreen is helping drive the shift toward more responsible materials in the blue economy.
