Micro Jutten

Anyone can beachcomb! But do you know what micro-bathing is? The consequences of the MSC Zoë disaster are still visible on the beach. The micro plastic balls (nurdles) are still lying on the beach and in the dunes. Also called mermaid tears by the Jutfabriek, or granulate; raw material for new plastic products. With the Jutfabriek you drive over the beach in a jeep, to a place near the European nature reserve Boschplaat. There you get to work with a sieve, and you sieve the sand. What remains are the nurdles. These go to the workshop. You become a researcher in this story and this is super valuable for the reporting of this mega problem that is almost invisible! Are you coming along? (We bring coffee/tea and provide something tasty along the way.)

De Jut Fabriek

Together with the Milieujutter Terschelling, we ensure that beach waste is given a new lease of life. We receive the washed up plastic from the Milieujutter in our workshop. The beach waste is cleaned, sorted and melted. The waste is then ground into minute pieces with a special shredder. New products are made from this granulate. The products are then sold in various shops on Terschelling.
