When the fish that should be wandering on the bottom of the sea are bound by the waste packaging that is difficult to degrade, when the bay where the seals should be lazily bathed in the sun is full of piles of plastic bottles ... marine pollution has reached an alarming level. Plastics not only float in the offshore, but also the pollution in the deep sea is incredible. Scientists took samples from the six deepest trenches in the world, which proved for the first time that creatures lurking in the deep sea were also ingesting a lot of plastic. Environmental protection has long been an important issue that any industry must pay attention to, and watchmaking enterprises are no exception.

Nowadays, the concern for environmental protection is really reflected in the various materials used to make watches. Using innovative resource recycling technology, marine garbage and environmental protection materials are made into watch parts, which become watchbands, watchcases and even watchcases. Environmental protection watches are no longer just words.

Brand-new material selection, high-end environmental protection.

Athens watch diver net watch

In the face of the increasingly serious marine plastic pollution crisis, ATHEN Watch is actively committed to developing solutions and has set up a special R&D department to explore materials suitable for watchmaking from the ocean, focusing on the characteristics of oyster shells, seaweed, PET plastic bottles and nylon fishing nets in the ocean. At present, this team is exploring different sustainable innovation methods for future watchmaking projects.

June 5438 +20201October, Athens Watch launched a brand-new R-STRAP strap, marking the first milestone of Athens Watch on the road of marine circular economy. The new strap is made of recycled fishing nets, which is suitable for some watches in Athens' diver diving series and ocean navigation series, as well as FREAK X watches in whimsy series. Fishing nets are one of the main sources of marine plastic pollution.

Today, Athens Watch launched the concept table of diver net. Every decorative element of the watch has been carefully designed to be as environmentally friendly as possible.

DIVER NET's case, middle layer, back and bezel are decorated by three young designers from Brittany, France. They set up FIL&FAB, the first French organization focusing on fishing net recycling, to recycle waste fishing nets from the port and then process them into polyamide plastic particles, which has excellent wear resistance.

Yann Louboutin, one of the three founders of FIL&FAB. FIL&FAB is a supplier from Brittany, France, focusing on making recycled plastics from recycled fishing nets.

The advent of the DIVER NET concept watch has condensed many research results, including redesigning the decorative part of the watch. The raw material of the strap is the PET plastic in the ocean, and the waste plastic is skillfully converted into polyamide yarn by TIDE Company of Switzerland for weaving the strap. The supplier also promised to stop producing brand-new plastic products from the source and use a lot of existing materials instead. In order to minimize the impact on the environment, the Athens watch also uses transparent ceramic glass made by Jura, Switzerland, instead of the traditional sapphire crystal glass. This material can reduce the energy consumption in the production process, thus reducing the impact on the environment. In the process of research and development, the innovation department of Athens Watch has evaluated and tested several solutions, which may be popularized and applied to other products in the future.

From the strap to the case, we can see the recycling.

Hollysys 65-year replica diving watch, etc.

Hollysys deeply understands the importance of protecting the environment and responds to the sustainable development goal of 17 set by the United Nations with practical actions.

Hollysys copied a diving watch in 1965, with a recycled plastic strap.

The scientific name of the strap material is r-Radyarn, which is made of recycled plastic. This new material has excellent antibacterial effect and stability, and the content of harmful substances meets the standards of the International Textile Association. This has brought many benefits: recycling plastics and using existing materials instead of natural resources; After regeneration, it has not lost its original characteristics; Can be reused many times; Under certain conditions, it can be degraded by 100% without causing secondary pollution. In fact, every 1 kg of recycled plastics is equivalent to a reduction of 3 kg of carbon dioxide emissions. Compared with making new plastics, it can reduce energy consumption by about half. The reuse of recycled plastics greatly saves the use of water resources and non-renewable mineral resources.

These watch boxes are made of FSC-certified paper and 100% recycled cardboard. They meet FSC standards. In addition, Hollysys also introduced a marine protection trident set watch case, which is made of recycled PET plastic. Hollysys also made a special packaging box for roberto clemente's limited edition watches, made entirely of cardboard. Cardboard 100% can be recycled, and other materials and cardboard have passed FSC certification. Some of these papers contain 15% corn waste. Paper comes from Italy and is produced by 100% green energy.

Hollysys has many limited edition watchcases with the theme of marine protection, which are made of seaweed.

Not only that, Hollysys also has a number of limited edition watchcases with the theme of marine protection, which are made of seaweed. These watch boxes are made of new plastic particles and 20% algae particles. The environment pollution of Venice lagoon is caused by the proliferation of algae, and the inside of the watch box is made of algae extract. The paper used to produce this special watch box can't be carbon neutral, so the manufacturer funded a project in Turkey to build a wind farm in Eden-Didim (near the Mediterranean). 15 windmills will be built, and the environmental benefits will greatly exceed the negative impact brought by papermaking.
