PlasticBean
Global manufacturing no longer has any excuses for using fossil fuel-based virgin plastics.
We offer the future-proof frontier in sustainable re-engineered material, empowering any industry leader and manufacturer to produce sustainable plastic products with cutting-edge material engineering.
We aren’t just preaching sustainability. We are the source of sustainable business.

Mission
We’re on a mission to change plastic production, one bean at a time.
Sure, it’ll take work to change the planet, but it can start with a simple change; the raw material we use.
Our BLUEWAVE® grade plastic pellets use zero virgin plastics, whilst matching on price and quality. After all - there shouldn’t be a compromise when doing the right thing.
PlasticBean makes it easy to choose sustainable plastic.

Innovation and production excellence; it’s in our DNA. Our business model is built on innovating solutions to global problems - like the plastics crisis. Our partnerships are based on a shared vision of sustainable development. Our holding company, Archwey, drives growth in future-proof product manufacturing. Resilience throughout the COVID-19 crisis shows that the approach works and Archwey looks to further implement this formula for crisis-resistant operations and manufacturing in future markets, building inclusive and resilient industrialisation and further innovation.

The heart of our sustainability vision is a better future for all though sustainable business.
We know that the material engineering we enjoy can be expanded to any consumer goods or plastic production. We demonstrate that a true circular economy model of responsible manufacturing can be possible. We can help affect society on a large scale. For good. Because our long term vision is to ensure that urban environments and cities are able to use only sustainable materials, in a circular economy and a way of life free from single-use plastics.

We don’t partner with just anyone. Our partnerships are established and maintained on a foundation of honesty, fairness, and consistency in all practices.
All supply chain partners follow our Code of Conduct. They follow our expectations on social compliance, auditing and waste monitoring, not to mention labour rights.
That’s how our clients have our assurance on manufacturing & supply chain ESG frameworks from waste to final product.

Climate action

Our BLUEWAVE® material innovation removes the need for virgin plastics. Instead, the process recycles post-consumer plastics, so they don’t end up as ocean microplastics and affect the oceanic carbon cycles.
BLUEWAVE® products last. And last, and last. They are multi-use and fully recyclable. Circularity such as this doesn’t just make for a lower carbon footprint, it provides a long-lasting and durable alternative to virgin petroleum-based single-use plastics.

Life below water

The BLUEWAVE® programme aims to hold back the tsunami of post-consumer waste pollution that spills into our oceans. By collecting waste from the four most polluting rivers in the world, the key sources of global plastic ocean pollution, we’re not just helping life below water. We’re bringing about the end of single-use plastic and the amount of it that ends up in our rivers and oceans.

We’re committed to cutting deforestation, not trees. That why our parent company, Archwey, only sanction the use of FSC® 100% certified wood across their brands. That means wood which is sustainably sourced, in ways that don’t damage forests and natural habitats. In responsibly managed forests there are no tree-less patches.
Our use of post-consumer waste for BLUEWAVE® also helps to prevent harmful plastics entering landfills or rivers - which helps protect the balance of biodiversity on land.
