OUR STORY

Searious Business is your partner to become a game changer - let’s stop plastic from entering our ocean.

Willemijn Peeters founded Searious Business in 2016 to prevent plastic pollution at the very source. Coming from business and having worked in sustainability for years, she firmly believes businesses are the real catalysts of change. Every minute, 20,000 kilos of plastic enter our Ocean. That's more than one garbage truck of plastic per minute. Searious Business is committed to bring this amount back to zero.
