Where our mission began!
The pilot Ocean Strainer, sponsored by MAS Capital, was installed at Wasala Road, Dehiwala in August 2020 in collaboration with government partners (including the Marine Environment Protection Authority and Western Provincial Council) and the nonprofit organisation Clean Ocean Force. The waste is cleared by the Sri Lanka Land Development Corporation in collaboration with the Dehiwala Municipality and with financial assistance from Clean Ocean Force Lanka and is disposed of at a state managed landfill. As of October 2022, this Strainer diverts an estimated 66,975 kilograms of waste from the ocean each year.
