Fishy Filaments (FF) has developed a fishing net recycling process that enables immediate use of net materials in 3D printing and injection moulding. FF cites EU research stating that just 1.5% of used fishing nets are recycled. FF aims to increase the aforementioned percentage via its technology. FF argues that its proprietary fishing net recycling process fits in a standard shipping container enabling commercial fleets or local stakeholders to manage their net wastes at a profit and access a low carbon raw material from which new products can be made. FF claims that it has recycled and sold around 2 tonnes of nets to over 200 customers in over 20 countries since the brand's commercial launch in January 2019. Its product, Marine Nylon, has been met with interest from customers and investors alike.
