Plastics in the Environment
Zero Pellet Loss is a priority for the plastics industry - and a critical issue for our environment. Spilled pellets make their way into local waters and eventually end up in our oceans where they create both a litter problem and a deadly threat to sea life. Zero Pellet Loss can only be achieved with your help. The Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) Program was created to help you help keep the environment clean.
The Value of OCS
The campaign's goal is: to help every plastic resin handling operation implement good housekeeping and pellet containment practices to work towards achieving zero pellet loss.

"Litter is not an issue of type of debris, but one of personal responsibility. We ALL share in the responsibility to prevent litter --- stopping debris before it reaches our stormwater drains where it can drift to our oceans. Protect our oceans and we protect ourselves."
--Jean-Michel Cousteau |
