Suzuki - reducing ocean plastic waste

Posted on: 24th February 2023 24th February 2023

Suzuki and OceanR are working together on an innovative campaign to reduce the amount of plastic in the oceans. From 16th February 2023 to 31st March 2023 – for every Suzuki outboard engine sold – to:

Remove 1kg of plastic waste from the oceans
Offer a free custom-designed hoodie – made from organic cotton and the equivalent recycled waste of 20x plastic bottles

This initiative is the latest step in Suzuki’s global ‘Clean Ocean Project’ – which began in 2010 as work to clean beaches but has widened to include technological innovations such as the micro-plastics collection device (currently fitted as standard to the DF115 and DF140). It has also led to changes to Suzuki’s operational processes, such as the removal of nearly 20 tonnes of plastics from its packaging since 2021.

OCEANR’s mission is to support companies around the world to achieve their sustainability objectives – from reducing their carbon footprint and encouraging responsible consumption practices; to sustainable innovation with new products and services. This is achieved by designing custom apparel and product ranges for organisations that live active lives on or near the water – with small volume production, using sustainable materials such as recycled polyester from reclaimed ocean waste, ethically produced organic cotton, and a closed loop supply chain (ie it seeks to recycle resources back into manufacturing rather than discard them).

Morgan Marine supports the positive impact of this campaign. Please do give us a call on 01206 302003 or visit our chandlery & showroom if you would like more information on Suzuki outboards.

Our Customers Say:

Today we took delivery of our brand new Jeanneau Merry fisher 1295 Fly Motor Yacht. The team at Morgan Marine are exceptional at delivering customer service, advice, engineering, you name it - they have got it nailed. We asked for some modifications to the specification which they gladly helped with, upgraded access ladder to fly, synthetic teak to decks and upgraded nav package to name a few. The ladder was designed and fabricated onsite (amazing job) and the whole package was ready on time as promised. Thanks so much guys.

Thought I’d send you a note to say how pleased I am with the MF 1095 and all the systems that you’ve put in. The boat has done 20 hours and the engines will be serviced shortly. There have been no issues arising and all systems function properly.

Can I take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time helping me with this. It is refreshing to work with you and your organisation and receive great customer service along with outstanding attention to detail. Normally I just get stock answers because I am asking technical questions which would involve doing some work.

Just to thank you all for a very efficient and professional service. Thank you for delivering our boat to the Norfolk Broads and sorting out our bow thruster.

I love an “anything can be done” attitude! Wish you & your team were closer to Poole

Thank you for all your help and fantastic service

Thanks for all your help and the very nice work to the bow of the boat.

Thank you for the very efficient and professional service provided on the 16/3/2021 which included collection from mooring, hoist out power wash, lowering both masts and hoist on to a transporter. All done with the minimum of fuss by a very cheerful staff.
