Premium Hammock with Recycled Materials

A premium hammock with recycled materials sounds like two things that fight each other. Recycled usually means scratchy, thin, or quick to fray. That is not the case here. The Go Hammock is woven from recovered plastic bottles spun into a soft ripstop fabric, and it feels closer to a good camp blanket than a net. You get a real seat that cradles your back instead of folding you in half.

We care about this because the surf life and the throwaway-plastic life do not mix. Every recycled hammock we sell keeps a stack of bottles out of the water you want to paddle in. So the eco part is not a sticker on the tag. It is the actual thread holding you off the ground. You rest, the beach stays cleaner, and nobody had to pull virgin plastic out of the earth to make it happen. That is the whole point of a premium hammock made from recycled materials.

Setup is the part people overthink. Find two anchor points about 12 to 15 feet apart. Wrap the straps at a height a little above your head, then clip in. You want the hammock to hang in a gentle smile shape, not pulled drum-tight. A slight sag is what lets you lie flat and diagonal, which is the trick to a flat back instead of a banana curl.

For care, keep it simple. Shake off the sand, and if it gets salty or muddy, rinse it with cool water and hang it to dry before you pack it. Skip the dryer. Heat is the enemy of any recycled hammock fabric. Because the material is ripstop, a small snag will not run across the whole panel, but it is still worth keeping it off thorny brush. Treat it well and a premium hammock with recycled materials will outlast a few cheaper ones you would have bought instead.

Is a recycled hammock as strong as a regular one?

Yes. The Go Hammock holds 400 pounds. Recycled plastic spun into ripstop is just as tough as new nylon, and the weave is rated the same way.

Does it come with straps and hardware?

It does. You get tree-friendly straps and carabiners in the box, so you can hang it the day it arrives. No extra trips to the hardware store.

How small does it pack down?

About the size of a grapefruit. It tucks into its own attached pouch and slides into a daypack, beach bag, or glovebox without a fight.

Can I leave it outside?

For a day, sure. For long stretches, bring it in. Constant sun and rain wear down any fabric over time, recycled or not, so a little shade between uses helps it last.
