Med Waved Award - Spain 2022

GRADE A PLUS Wins 2nd Prize at the 2022 WeMed Mediterranean Sustainability Award

 We are proud to announce that GRADE A PLUS, led by our co-founder Jocelyne Saade, received the 2nd prize in the Southern Mediterranean countries category at the WeMed Mediterranean Sustainability Award 2022
The ceremony took place on November 21, 2022, at the historic Sant Pau Recinte Modernista in Barcelona, Spain. Organized by MedWaves, the UNEP/MAP Regional Activity Centre for Sustainable Consumption and Production, and TEXFOR, this prestigious award recognizes outstanding success stories of sustainable businesses in the textile, clothing, and fashion sector
GRADE A PLUS was honored for its unique mission to upcycle sheep wool—often burned or wasted in the Lebanese mountains—into eco-friendly products including blankets, insulation sheets, and SoilPlus organic wool pellets.
 Our initiative not only preserves traditional materials but also offers healthier alternatives to synthetic fibers like Dacron, which can be harmful to both people and the planet. 
The Silver Acceleration Award, valued at €10,000, will provide us with coaching and technical support to further develop our sustainability-driven business.
We are honored to have been recognized among such inspiring innovators and remain committed to our mission of transforming waste into opportunity through sustainable solutions.
