This soap tray has an adorable marble pattern. It is made almost 100% from "ocean plastic waste" that washed up on Japanese shores. It also makes a great gift!
The pattern is the color of discarded plastic waste. The weight is the weight of waste floating in the ocean. To prevent direct contact with marine plastic waste, the product is molded with polypropylene film. All buoy products are marked with the place where the material was collected. The place of collection and color of the material vary from piece to piece.
There are holes to prevent water from pooling, and a "stand"-like part on the back to allow water to flow out easily.
Five beautifully reborn, gentle and pretty marble colors are now available. Even if the color is the same, the color atmosphere varies from piece to piece. It may be quite different from the photo, so please love the one you receive.
This is what it looks like from the side.
[Message from buoy] Marine litter is a global problem. It is becoming a leading hypothesis that marine litter that continues to drift becomes a large amount of microplastics and is preyed upon by fish, and a future in which we cannot eat fish may come much sooner than we think. Much of the marine plastic litter that flows out of Asia ends up on the ocean currents and washes up on Japan. Japan may be the world's largest hotspot for marine plastic litter. For example, more than 3,000 tons of marine plastic litter washes up on the coast each year in Tsushima City, Nagasaki Prefecture alone. Most of the litter washes up in the Sea of Japan in winter, on the west coast of Kyushu, or on remote islands, and unimaginable amounts of marine litter are collected mainly by volunteer groups, without even the locals knowing about it. buoy purchases such marine litter as vintage materials, manages them all in each collection area, and creates products.
Even large things like this wash up.
In fact, Fu, the owner of Who's Note, has been a fan of buoy for a long time... At first, it was a project with a different name, but I (as an individual) watched the launch of the brand and thought it was amazing and great. Then, after a chance encounter in the spring of 2024, I was contacted and was able to introduce it at Who's Note. I am very happy. I want many people to know that this is a "thing" but also an "event." I think it is a "product" but also a "project." And I think it is significant that the buoy brand was born by volunteer members of a manufacturer that designs and mass-produces plastic products, and that as a plastic manufacturer, we are sincerely facing the value of the material.
Products are made from marine plastic waste collected from all over Japan. All buoy products are marked with the place where the material was collected. (Each item is different.) Marine waste collected during beach cleanups is washed, separated by color, crushed into small pieces, and all are managed by collection site. I think it is important to know where the material of the product that has been beautifully reborn and delivered to your hands was washed ashore and to think about that place. Marine waste, which was hated as plastic waste, has been reborn from something that was thrown away to something that cannot be thrown away, and it becomes a bridge that connects people in areas where waste is washed ashore and people in areas where it is not washed ashore. I think that through buoy, we ourselves need to feel this problem more and more closely.
There is also a brush stand.

The machine in the photo picks up marine plastic waste that has washed up on the shore → separates it → washes and crushes it → hardens it by applying heat and pressure... The product is made by hand. *The machine is molded with polypropylene film around it so that the plastic waste does not come into direct contact with the product.
