Plastic Credit + Certification for a Small Business
Plastic Credit + Certification for a Small Business
Your small business can make a big difference to the ocean.
Customers are choosing where to spend their money more carefully than ever. Sustainability isn't a nice-to-have anymore — it's a deciding factor. And plastic neutrality is one of the clearest, most tangible commitments a business can make.
Odyssey Innovation is one of a very small number of organisations in the world actively recovering plastic from the marine environment with full additionality — meaning the plastic we collect would not have been recovered without our intervention. We don't just offset. We act.
What Is a Small Business Plastic Credit?
This credit covers the estimated plastic footprint of your small business. We handle the recovery, processing, and recycling — and you receive an official Plastic Neutral Certification to display with confidence. It's a straightforward, credible way to demonstrate your environmental commitment without the complexity of a full sustainability audit.
What You Get
- ✅ Verified plastic recovery on behalf of your small business
- ✅ Official Plastic Neutral Certification

Everything you need to know about Plastic Credits & Certification
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Plastic Credit?
A Plastic Credit is a verified certificate that proves a specific quantity of plastic has been physically recovered from the ocean or coastal environment on your behalf. Unlike donations, each credit represents a real, completed action — plastic that has been collected, processed, and diverted from the marine ecosystem. It's one of the most direct ways an individual or business can take measurable responsibility for plastic pollution.
What is Plastic Neutral certification?
Plastic Neutral certification means that the plastic footprint associated with your lifestyle or business has been offset by an equivalent quantity of verified marine plastic recovery. You receive an official certificate in your name that you can display, share, and use to demonstrate your commitment to ocean conservation.
What does my purchase actually pay for?
Your payment funds the hands-on work of recovering marine plastic — beach cleans, fishing net collection schemes, and coastal operations run directly by Odyssey Innovation. We are not a middleman. Every penny goes into the physical recovery and processing of plastic that would otherwise remain in the ocean.
What do I receive after buying a Plastic Credit?
You'll receive an official Plastic Neutral Certificate delivered digitally, typically within 1–3 working days. This certificate is in your name, verifiable, and yours to use publicly — on your website, social media, or printed materials.
I've never heard of Plastic Credits before — is this legitimate?
Yes. Plastic Credits are a recognised mechanism for addressing plastic pollution, similar in concept to carbon credits but focused on physical plastic recovery. Odyssey Innovation operates with full additionality — meaning the plastic we recover would not have been collected without our direct intervention. We are transparent about our operations and the certification we issue is genuine and verifiable.
Can my business buy Plastic Credits to offset its plastic consumption?
Absolutely. We offer Plastic Credit certifications specifically designed for businesses — from sole traders and micro businesses through to large enterprises. Purchasing credits allows your company to demonstrate measurable environmental responsibility, support your ESG or sustainability reporting, and communicate your commitment to customers and stakeholders. Browse our business tiers to find the right level for your organisation.
How can I use Plastic Neutral certification in my business marketing?
Your certification is yours to use freely. Many businesses display the Plastic Neutral badge on their website, packaging, email signatures, and social media. It's a credible, verifiable signal to customers that your company is taking real action — not just making promises. We actively encourage you to share it.
How is this different from other environmental offset schemes?
Many offset schemes fund future projects, pay third parties, or rely on estimates. Odyssey Innovation physically recovers plastic from the marine environment ourselves — the action happens before you receive your certificate. We operate with full additionality, meaning nothing we recover would have been collected without our direct involvement. You're paying for something that has already happened, not a promise of future action.
Is a Plastic Credit a one-off purchase or a subscription?
Each credit is a one-off purchase. However, if you'd like ongoing Plastic Neutral status — for yourself or your business — we offer annual certification plans that keep your accreditation current year-round.
How much plastic does one credit offset?
Each Plastic Credit represents a verified quantity of recovered marine plastic. The specific amount is confirmed on your certificate. Our pricing is structured to make meaningful impact accessible — whether you're an individual taking your first step or a large business looking to offset significant consumption.
