Reef Safer*: Going Beyond "Reef Safe"

At Stream2Sea, we use the term “reef safer” to reflect our commitment to transparency, rigorous testing and continuous improvement to minimize our environmental impact. Unlike vague “reef safe” claims, “reef safer” acknowledges the complexity of ocean health and our — ongoing efforts — to protect marine ecosystems responsibly.
