We are Twende Green

- Born from the shores where the ocean meets communities, where beauty and pollution exist side by side.
We are a movement turning the tide against plastic pollution in Kenya.
Through our innovative recycling processes, we convert marine plastic waste into durable, eco-friendly furniture, most notably, school furniture that supports education in underserved communities.
