Ocean Plastic Bin Map
You're tired of finding litter on your walks by the sea and want to take some initiative?
It starts with you!
Żibel Ocean Plastic Bins
We provide 11 Żibel bins around Malta and Gozo at the coastal areas where you can dispose of unwelcoming beach finds. Below, you will find a map and list of all the bins' locations.
Why do we provide special Żibel bins for ocean plastic?
You might wonder why you should use the Żibel bins for the rubbish you find by the beach instead of regular bins. The reason is that once plastic enters our seas, it becomes degraded by sea salt and UV light – rendering the material brittle, fragmented, and discolored – which makes it largely unusable for recycling.
Use the Żibel Tribe Bins for your own clean-up in 6 simple steps:
-
Collect any plastic waste you find during your clean-up.
-
Find the Closest Tribe Bin on the map provided below.
-
Use your phone to scan the QR code on the bin.
-

-

-
Use the code you receive to open the bin, deposit your items, and then lock it for the next user!
