About TRUE BLUE

TRUE BLUE is a project that turns ocean waste into treasure and helps make oceans around the world cleaner.
At TRUE BLUE, we make and sell products using marine plastic we collect, and offer upcycling experiences that anyone can enjoy.
To spread the wave of upcycling, we hold events, workshops, training courses, tours, and more in Japan and abroad.
What began on Kouri Island, Okinawa, in 2022 has now grown to Croatia, Palau, Australia, and beyond.
Have fun. Feel good. Keep the ocean beautiful.
ONE LOVE, ONE OCEAN

Culture
Listen to Surf Music on Records Made from Marine Plastic
We are developing records made from marine plastic.
Every day, we experiment with ways to turn waste that has drifted through the ocean into music that feels good.
Ride the Waves with Marine Plastic
We are developing surfboards with fins made from marine plastic. We want to create products that surfers will love and use as a symbol of ONE LOVE, ONE OCEAN.
Sip Wine in a Space Made with Marine Plastic
We are creating a wine bar in Nishiazabu, Tokyo, with interiors and furnishings made from upcycled marine plastic.
Discover the beauty of ocean waste transformed into elegant tiles, tables, and more, while enjoying TRUE BLUE’s original BTO wine, which supports our work to protect the ocean.
Upcycling Ocean Waste—and the Remnants of War
We have launched a project to transform landmines and unexploded ordnance, symbols of war, into products that symbolize peace.
Together, we are creating a new culture of upcycling.
