Kia Corporation has developed the world’s first car accessory made from plastic extracted from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP) by The Ocean Cleanup. More information is available at this link.

• The announcement of this accessory is a major milestone in Kia's long-term partnership with The Ocean Cleanup.
• As one of the most significant outcomes of the partnership so far, Kia will introduce a limited-edition trunk liner for the all-new Kia EV3 made using ocean plastic received from The Ocean Cleanup.
• The exclusive accessory will be available for EV3 in selected markets and available to order in line with the model’s market introduction.
• Taking inspiration from Kia’s ‘Opposites United’ design philosophy, the trunk liner’s ‘geometric wave’ top surface pattern is reminiscent of waves and the flow of trash into a collecting area.
• Made with 40% recycled ocean plastic, the trunk liner is just as durable, protective and functional as a conventional trunk liner. It features a QR code, which provides information about the product's development.
• Due to the unique qualities of the ocean plastic catch, the first phase involves sorting, recycling, and processing the plastic to meet Kia’s strict quality standards.
• Unlike ocean-bound plastic, the Ocean Cleanup's catch is exclusively composed of materials that were already in the ocean, making it more challenging to recycle.
