In 2019, Carrefour Belgium launched a new range of reusable and recyclable carrier bags made from end-of-life fishing nets and ropes.

Carrefour Belgium has collaborated with SEAQUAL INITIATIVE to have access to the Upcycled Marine Plastic used in making these bags and estimates that around 10 kilograms of Upcycled Marine Plastic are used in the production of every 100 bags. These recycled plastic bags are available in all of the 800 Carrefour stores in Belgium.

Carrefour is collaborating with SEAQUAL INITIATIVE to support ocean clean-ups to take action against marine litter.
