    How to participate in project PARALIES

    The project PARALIES initiative involves companies that share the same environmental concerns with us and wish to substantially contribute towards the direction of natural environment’s protection and remediation, through their active participation in actions that result to a positive environmental footprint.

    We dream of a marine and coastal ecosystem free of waste and for this purpose we join our forces.

    Through the project PARALIES initiative, our effort acquires the most important allies.

    Your company can also participate in the project PARALIES by adopting a beach. We will be happy to hear you.
