The International Green Building Award celebrates products and projects that advance sustainable construction practices. OceanCycle was selected for its innovative use of 10kg of recycled ocean plastic per square meter, diverting over 500,000kg of plastic from oceans since its 2026 launch. Judges also praised its ability to meet professional sports standards, proving sustainability and performance can coexist.
Notable OceanCycle installations include the Copenhagen GreenWave Arena (the world’s first carbon-neutral sports arena) and the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Training Center. Limei has recently expanded its ocean plastic sourcing to include partnerships with coastal cleanup organizations in West Africa and the Caribbean, further expanding its environmental impact.
“This award is a testament to our team’s dedication to turning environmental challenges into solutions,” said Ms. Li Na, Limei’s Sustainability Director. “OceanCycle isn’t just a product—it’s a movement to protect our oceans, and we’re grateful for the recognition that will help us reach more clients and make an even greater difference.”
Limei plans to increase the recycled plastic content in OceanCycle to 15kg per square meter by 2029 and expand the line to include outdoor sports flooring options.
