About the brand
Established in 2009 by Javier Goyeneche, ECOALF focuses on using recycled and reclaimed materials to create high-quality clothing, footwear, and accessories. They became the first fashion company from Spain to receive a certificate as a B Corporation. The B - CORP certificate identifies that the company meets the highest standard of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and the purpose the company was built for.
Upcycling the Oceans is the main project of the Ecoalf Foundation and undoubtedly the most ambitious one; an unprecedented worldwide initiative that fights against marine waste with the help of the fishing industry. A mission with international scope that was first implemented in Spain in 2015 and since then expanded to Thailand, Greece, Italy, France and Egypt. The Ecoalf Foundation is currently working on growing the project to other countries in the Mediterranean basin with the hope of retrieving and recycling more and more marine plastics and waste to help keep our oceans cleaner and the animals within it better protected.
