MEET THE FOUNDER

In 2016, Oceanworks Founder, Rob Ianelli created the world’s first ocean plastic sunglasses. He realized how hard it was to source ocean plastics and saw a larger opportunity to make sourcing of trusted ocean plastic materials simple, scalable, and accessible for all companies. Oceanworks launched in 2018 and now has over 100 member companies sampling and sourcing recycled ocean plastic materials.
