WHY WE MADE OUR LITTER PICKING EQUIPMENT - OUR STORY
At Waterhaul, we aim to inspire and enable community action against plastic pollution. In 2019 we created the world’s first recycled litter picker – made with 100% recycled ocean plastic components: literally made from the problem it is designed to tackle.
Proudly made in Britain, our litter picking equipment range has since expanded, with ghost gear bin bag hoops made from 100% recycled ocean plastic and our reusable bin bags upcycled from end-of-life sails, and has been put to use by a community of over 35,000 people.
We built what we couldn’t buy, and have now turned this litter picking equipment into tools everyone can use to combat plastic pollution and preserve their natural spaces.

LYRA - LITTER PICKING FOR SCHOOL
Lyra started litter picking when she noticed that every morning on her way to school she would see litter strewn across the floor of one of her favourite places to visit, Manor Woods Valley in Bristol, UK. However, she decided wanted to make a bigger impact and so made it her mission to get her entire school involved with litter picking.
We thought this was such an incredible and inspiring story that it deserved to be highlighted and supported as much as possible - so joined Lyra on a day of half-term litter picking to hear more about her mission.
REVIEWS
I adore these sunglasses. So lightweight and comfortable, I'm going to get some prescription glasses too because they don't leave marks on my nose nor weigh down on my ears. I'm always trying to reduce my carbon footprint and the ethics of this company are great. Super customer service too. I upgraded to polarised and I'm impressed. Had a few compliments about them and I've only had them a few weeks.

My optician said they were the nicest and easiest to work with recycled material for frames that they had seen so far. I am so happy with them best pair of glasses I've ever had in 20 years, very comfy. I need varifocals that's why my optician was dealing with it.

I contacted Waterhaul to ask which lenses to choose as I have light sensitivity and need dark lenses for driving. They gave me all the information I needed and the blue mirror lenses are helping with low winter sun and road reflections. Great clarity as well. Highly recommend.

I have owned a number of knives but this one sits very well in the hand. I volunteer at a nature reserve and it will come in handy for my clearing duties. And I love the fact that it's made from recycled plastic from the sea. Keep up the great work.

Have had these for a while now and they get used all the time whilst we do our dog walks/litter picks in the North Devon region where we live. Lightweight yet durable and obviously have been made to a very high standard - very highly recommended.

As with everything we have ordered from waterhaul, the litter pick hoop and bag are fab. Strong, sturdy and of course made using recycled materials. Arrived quicky and has been put to use many times already! Cheers.
