The global sail reycling platform giving old sails a new life.

Over 97% of old sails end up in landfill.

There are no formal recycling facilities, anywhere in the world.

Old sails can be made into new things, which is why we created ReSail - a global platform connecting old sails with a new life.

OUR NEWS

97% of all sails end up in landfill.

WHY RESAIL? OUR GOALS

Upcycle what already exists.

In the short term, upcycling is the quickest and easiest way to prolong the life of a used sail. This is where our platform starts. ReSail encourages all of us sailors to view used sails as a new resource, not waste, when they come to the end of their sailing life.

Upcycling

Encourage constructional change.

Critically, the very nature of sail composition and construction needs to develop so that the materials used can more easily be deconstructed, reclaimed, reused and recycled, all with as little waste as possible. We work with our sailmaker friends to help do just that.

Sail Construction

Explore the material science of sails.

Working alongside all our fantastic partners, we want to better understand how sail materials can be used in other contexts, environments and industries, for completely new products and services.
