About Circular Sails Partner
Our purpose
To establish and grow a national recovery network that diverts end-of-life sails from landfill and enables them to be reused and repurposed.
Our objectives
Divert sail materials from landfill
Enable reuse and repurposing
Build a collaborative partner network
Promote circularity and sustainable sailing
Creating impact beyond the ocean
Recovered sails also create positive social impact. Through our partnerships, including Bambak and ActionAid in Vanuatu, sail materials are turned into durable products, provide local employment and skills training for women, and have already helped deliver community projects such as shade shelters for kindergartens.
A not-for-profit organisation
Circular Sails Partner is a not-for-profit partnership. Donations and support received are used to cover the cost of operating and growing the national recovery network. Any surplus is reinvested to improve services, expand participation and increase the amount of sail material kept in use.
