If you are one of those people who often lost their belongings, this Bluetooth-based Chipolo app will come in handy as it is designed to help find lost items. Chipolo is perfect for finding your lost money bag or key in a matter of seconds. Open the Chipolo application on your phone via Bluetooth and tap on the word “ring to Find”, it will ring and it will be able to identify your lost item. Other companies, including Samsung, have similar products, but Chipolo continues to compete with them. However, the Chipolo One Ocean Edition, produced by recycling sea wastes, is now in the spotlight.
“Our products are made of plastic, they are very small and although we don’t use a lot of plastics, we feel we should be environmentally responsible and aware,” said Nika Kramzer, Chipolo’s chief marketing officer. Ocean Works is one such organization that seeks to eliminate waste plastics from the world. Waste plastics, also known as polypropylene Js, are taken out of the shallow waters of the sea shore and used for recycling of waste woven bags, packing bags, tied ropes, etc., with the help of plastic stone making machines.
Rob Ayon-Eli, founder and president of Ocean Works, said: “Incorporating marine waste plastics into our products sends a message not only to consumers but also to other businesses that nothing is truly impossible. You can start with a small business but you can get big results. ”
Recently, Chipolo Oceanic Global, a non-profit organization that supports efforts to keep the oceans clean and free of debris, donated tens of thousands of dollars to the organization. “It takes an average of 500 to 1,000 years to break down a plastic product,” said Leah de Oriol, founder and executive director of Oceanic Global.
Harmful plastic waste in our oceans and seas is growing at an alarming rate. According to the International Solid Waste Association, about 80 percent of all marine litter, including all waste materials, is single-use plastic products and plastics such as discarded fishing gear. Various companies have started thinking about these concerns now. Fisher Automotive will now use carpets made from marine waste plastic and discarded fishing nets in their new car, the Ocean SUV, or Sports Utility Vehicle.
“We’re not just selling a product made from recyclable fishing nets, we’re raising awareness about marine pollution,” said Nika Kramzer, Chipolo’s chief marketing officer. Perhaps this is how we encourage other companies to start thinking about it and make recyclable plastic products instead of the original material.
An organization like Chipolo is delighted to be able to make its own small contribution to tackling a larger global problem.
