With one life and one planet, we take it as our responsibility to make as big of an impact as possible. Here at Dorsal, we strive to make quality products our friends would like, have a sweet time, and most importantly continue in our efforts to #respecttheway. Our goal is to halt single-use plastic, spread awareness on global pollution, and restore our aquatic ecosystems. Ultimately more so now than never, our oceans need us to change the way we treat them. The simple idea that a bracelet can spark conversations and serve as a reminder, is why we're here.
One Purchase = One Pound
We partner with Plastic Bank®. Plastic Bank empowers the regenerative society. They are helping the world stop ocean plastic while improving the lives of those who help collect it. Plastic Bank builds ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities, and reprocesses the materials for reintroduction into the global manufacturing supply chain. Their collectors receive a premium for the plastic they collect, ultimately helping them provide for basic family necessities such as groceries, cooking fuel, school tuition, and health insurance. Plastic Bank’s proprietary blockchain platform secures the entire transaction while providing traceability and transparency. Plastic Bank is currently operating in Haiti, Brazil, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Egypt.
Each month Dorsal collaborates with and makes a contribution to Plastic Bank. We could not be more thankful for this partnerships as we continue to further the strides in our shared mission to make a global impact.

Coral Restoration
Our partners over at Coralive.org are a non-profit organization, focused on the protection and restoration of our ocean's coral and marine resources. Each month Dorsal makes a donation to Coralive in our collaborative goal to protect and reestablish our ocean's ecosystem.
Coral Restoration Through Mineral Accretion
• Low direct current electrolysis | Increased pH-level environment close to the cathode | Limestone deposition on the cathode
• >90% survival rate of weak and/or small coral fragments placed on structures | Constant push for growth making corals more resilient against effects of climate change
• Coral growth increased 300% times higher than naturally
Ocean Conservation
We partner with The Ocean Agency, which is an international non-profit organization dedicated to marine research, conservation, and ultimately awareness for change. Their versatile team is using creativity, leading edge technology and powerful partnerships to accelerate their movement. Each month, Dorsal makes a donation to The Ocean Agency to help aid in their "disruptive" approach for change by shedding light and action on our ocean's issues. Right at the core.
Each month Dorsal donates 15% of all net profit to the partnered organizations, listed above.
