Catchgreen is a cross-sector collaborative research project that covers the entire fishing gear production chain, from the development of a brand-new biodegradable compound for ocean use, filaments manufacturing, and testing, to piloting in real-life ocean conditions and prototype gear development through various project partners in Sweden, Norway, South Africa and Kenya.
Through the partnership with GAIA Biomaterials, the Catchgreen project has developed an innovative compound of biodegradable biomaterials that is suitable for marine applications. If lost or dumped, Catchgreen fishing gear will disintegrate into biomass without any toxins or Microplastics. Each prototype is designed to match the performance of the conventional fishing gear. Further, biodegradable fishing gear is a solution to the stockpiling of plastics on land, as old and discharged biodegradable fishing gear can be collected and composted into high-quality compost for soil enrichment.
