Circular Ocean Model.
Circular Ocean has developed a circular economy model that enables the transformation of discarded fishing nets into the high-performance material PENYLON®. Today PENYLON® is used within large-scale additive manufacturing (industrial robot 3D printing) to produce high-end products.

Penylon® Material
The goal with developing PENYLON® is to encourage the recycling of ocean plastic waste through the upcycling of fishing nets into high-performance materials for customers truly dedicated to sustainability, such as designers, architects and high-end manufacturing companies.
For example, Ekbacken Studios AB in Sweden is "turning waste into masterpieces" through the production of high-end furniture from PENYLON® with large-scale additive manufacturing.
