Oceanworks is engineering responsible plastic for next generation plastic users who are simply unwilling to compromise.


Where we came from
In 2016 we created Norton Point, a mission-oriented consumer brand which debuted the use of ocean bound plastics in eyewear. Here we witnessed first hand the fragmented and disorganized industry that is PLASTIC, never-mind RECYCLED PLASTIC.
In 2018, Oceanworks was born - founded on the shared ideal that plastic is an essential resource, absolutely fundamental to modern society, but must be managed responsibly to anchor a thriving global economy.

Where we are going
Responsible plastic management must be driven by market incentives. Through advancements in technology and
value-engineering across the supply chain, post-consumer recycled plastic can and will become the best commercial choice for resin buyers. Further by proactively reclaiming the inherent plastic pollution resulting from every ton of plastic sold we can build a foundation for a flourishing modern society that is not smothered by plastic waste.
To drive this vision, Oceanworks is leveling up our efforts:
- Bringing new advanced physical recycling technology to market
- Launching Performance PCR resins that offer the same utility as virgin resins
- Consistently delivering commercial value and utility for every grade across the portfolio
- Embedding plastic pollution reduction in everything we do
- Entrenching ourselves with committed partners and launching new partnerships

Join the mission
We are realists in a volatile market. Our roadmap keeps sight of our business ethos – innovation, remaining lean, and leveraging our digitally native backbone and AI capabilities for excellent cus-tomer experience. The result is revolutionary PCR materials, from an industrial supply chain, available at market leading prices.
