Plastic-free beaches
Rid the beaches of plastic waste by your own beach cleaning project – supported by BeachTech.
According to current estimates, up to ten million metric tons of plastic waste end up in the ocean every year. Currents and wind spread them throughout the ocean, and a significant proportion of the plastic is washed back ashore. Thanks to its patented cleaning technology, BeachTech provides the option of collecting plastic waste, thus preventing it from polluting the ocean again.
At working widths up to 2.50 m, BeachTech beach cleaners achieve an area coverage of up to 30,000 m²/h, which corresponds to about six soccer fields in an hour. The beach cleaners are thus an efficient addition to manual beach cleaning.
Thanks to the screening technology, BeachTech also removes contamination below the sand surface down to a depth of 30 cm.
BeachTech beach cleaners sustainably remove contaminants from sand that range from plastic pellets (nurdles) to large packaging objects such as bottles or cans.
BeachTech in action worldwide against plastic waste on beaches
No Plastic Waste Back to the Oceans
In areas heavily frequented by tourists, in particular, a lot of waste is left behind on the beach. But even beaches off the beaten path are increasingly threatened by plastic waste that washes ashore. BeachTech beach cleaners are an efficient addition to manual beach cleaning.
The Great Nurdle CleanUp
When the vessel X-Press Pearl sank off the coast of Colombo, Sri Lanka, countless plastic pallets, known as nurdles, were spread across 700 km of coastline. The Alliance to End Plastic Waste supported the Marine Environment Protection Authority of Sri Lanka with multiple BeachTech Sweepy machines to capture these nurdles.
World CleanUp Day
