Litter Traps
Since 2017 we have been implementing Litter Traps in rivers, canals, ports and coastal areas. To find the most effective installation, for each situation, we've developed different systems and are still further innovating.

Modular Litter Trap
The Modular Litter Trap is our latest development to stop plastic marine pollution in a durable and (cost) effective manner. The design follows after installing more than twenty Litter Traps in international locations since 2017.
The design is compact, modular and easy to implement. The different parts fit into the back of our van. In this way it can easily be transported to its location. After assembly the Litter Trap can be pleased by only two people.
The first installation, to capture marine debris, is placed in the Riedijkshaven in Dordrecht. The Litter Trap will retrieve plastic marine pollution and will prevent further spreading, of litter, into our Dutch waterways and eventually the North Sea. The retrieval device will be emptied on a weekly basis.
The installation in Dordrecht is done in collaboration with waterschap Hollandse Delta and the Gemeente Dordrecht.
Meet the LT5
At CLEAR RIVERS, we're constantly experimenting with new methods to enhance the efficiency of our Litter Traps. Our second model, the LT5, is designed to be more portable and cost-effective, as the LT6, making it easier to transport and deploy.
With the support of our partners, we continue to expand our network of Litter Traps across waterways in Europe. We are also proud to extend our mission beyond Europe, installing Litter Traps across rivers worldwide. By collaborating with local organizations and communities, we are working towards a cleaner and healthier environment for all. Discover our Litter Traps locations below!
