We are excited to officially announce that Azenco Outdoor has renewed the partnership with 4ocean for the fourth consecutive year.
What began in 2023 as a commitment to support ocean cleanup efforts has grown into a long-term initiative rooted in accountability and measurable impact. Today, we are proud to share our next milestone: reaching our 100,000 lbs goal.
Over the past three years, together with 4ocean, we have supported the removal of 75,000 pounds of ocean debris. In 2026, we are committing to removing an additional 25,000 pounds to reach this significant benchmark.
This partnership reflects who we are as a company, thoughtful, long-term builders who believe environmental responsibility should be measurable.

75,000 Pounds Removed So Far
From 2023 to 2025, Azenco Outdoor supported:
- 25,000 pounds removed in 2023
- 25,000 pounds removed in 2024
- 25,000 pounds removed in 2025
Cleanup operations have focused primarily in Indonesia, where plastic pollution remains a major environmental challenge. In addition, our team has participated in local beach cleanups in Florida, reinforcing that our commitment is both global and local.
As outlined in our 2026 Collection Brochure, sustainability is part of our operational standards as a U.S. based manufacturer of custom pergolas and architectural shade systems.
Sustainability in Outdoor Architecture
Outdoor living has evolved from simple patio covers to integrated smart pergola systems with motorized louvers and advanced controls. As these systems become more sophisticated, responsible manufacturing matters more than ever.
At Azenco Outdoor, we prioritize durable extruded aluminum, precision production to reduce waste, material recycling, and long product life cycles. Our continued partnership with 4ocean reflects that same long-term mindset.
The 100,000 lbs Goal
Our objective for 2026 is clear: remove 25,000 more pounds of debris and officially reach the 100,000 lbs goal.
Milestones create accountability. Just as we engineer motorized aluminum pergolas and adjustable louvered pergolas designed to perform for decades, we approach environmental responsibility with measurable standards.
We are proud of the progress made so far, and even more motivated for what comes next.
Life is better outside, and protecting it is part of our commitment!
