Big news in sustainable packaging!
We’re so proud of our friends at @swaythefuture for pushing forward with their seaweed-based Sway Polybag—a game-changer in removing single-use plastics from the fashion world.
@prana, @fahertybrand, @florence_marine_x, and @alexcrane are the very first brands to begin using these new bags in their production. Created with regenerative, renewable, and home compostable ingredients, this milestone is a huge step in the journey away from traditional plastics and towards circular solutions.
With seaweed as its hero ingredient, this bag helps to divert petroleum and support healthy ecosystems and communities. And while it competes with plastic’s performance, it won’t last forever – returning to nature through home and industrial composting.

Update from Hawaiʻi!
Reef Check Malaysia’s Julian Hyde recently completed training in Hawai’i, supporting the re-launch of Reef Check Hawai’i! 🌺 Alongside local divers, Julian helped train three new EcoDiver Trainers, committed to a huge mission—surveying 90 reef sites across Hawai’i by next year!
Julian found remarkable parallels between Hawai’i and Malaysia—both regions face similar threats like pollution, overfishing, and climate change. We’re proud to support this incredible international partnership.
Stay in touch with both @reefcheck_hawaii and @reefcheckmalaysia by following their pages.
