About Grale:

Imagine a world free from microplastics where our planet thrives. At Grale, we’re not just imagining it - we’re building it. Plastics are made from petroleum and remain in our environment for thousands of years, while microplastics have already found their way into our oceans, food, and even our bodies. By 2050, there could be more plastic than fish in the sea. We’re here to change that - and we’re looking for passionate people to join us.
