Plas-Tao

INTRODUCTION

Despite the best efforts of our eco-minded community, there will always be single use plastic that washes into our bays and shoreline with the tide. Plas-Tao is a local project that collects plastic waste from both the ocean and the beaches around our island and turns it into new and exciting products.

GOALS

The aim is to reduce the amount of plastic going to landfill and also prevent it from entering the ocean. By removing litter and educating people about the negative impacts of plastic and other harmful non-biodegradable materials, we can all benefit from living in a cleaner, greener world. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to take away a tangible, environmentally-friendly souvenir of your time on Koh Tao.

 

ACTIVITY DETAILS

Join the Plas-Tao workshop and learn how the team recycle an array of single-use plastics into handmade products suitable for daily use. Examples include keyrings, jewelry, coasters, plant pots, bottle openers, soap dishes, and more! Plus, the team are always eager to hear new ideas for expanding the Plas-Tao range!
