What the data shows

Five years in the water. The first independent record of who's polluting Sydney Harbour.

94% of Australia's soft plastic ends up in the environment, and the brands behind it are rarely named. Since 2020 our Seabins have photographed every item we capture from Sydney Harbour — building the first public dataset that shows what's out there, where it came from, and which brand it belongs to.

  • Monthly trends per brand from 2020 to today
  • Festival, event & location overlays (e.g. Vivid Sydney)
  • Open data — embeddable in ESG & impact reports

For sustainability teams at brands & councils

The data your team has been asked for, finally.

Sponsoring a Seabin gives your team measurable ocean-plastic outcomes, branded reporting, and the only dataset that names the companies behind harbour pollution.

Audit-grade ESG data

Every kg captured tied to a date, location and brand. Drop the numbers straight into a sustainability report.

Real environmental outcomes

Litter physically removed from the water before it enters the food chain — not pledges or offsets.

Branded impact, publicly visible

Your logo shown next to live capture numbers on the Seabin ticker, dashboard and partner reports.

Manage your plastic-footprint risk

See which of your products show up in the water and act on it before regulators or media do.

Seabin gave us auditable, brand-level pollution data we'd never had before — and a credible story to take to our board and to our customers.
