MATTER OF TRUST HAIR MATS
MatterOfTrust.org established the Clean Wave program to promote large-scale waste fiber recycling. Their felted recycled fiber mats go to public works departments for use in storm drains. They also coordinate with emergency clean water efforts to supply stuffed sausage-shaped booms that can “sandbag” and protect coves and beaches.
The goal of Matter of Trust is to divert fibers from the waste stream, sort them into useful stockpiles, create replicable, sustainable green jobs, and manufacture renewable material products that clean our waterways.
