Bio-Plastic Leash Plug
Greenlight is the Pioneer of Bio-plastics for the Surfboard Industry
Bio-plastic is a natural resin made from corn starch designed to supplement or even replace conventional petroleum based plastics.
Years of research in the attempt to find natural alternatives has lead to the development of a process that converts corn starch successfully into
a material which carries plastic characteristics. The bio-plastic is compostable and can completely return to nature after being used when buried. It will not degrade in salt water or sand.
Did you know?
Conventional, petroleum based plastics (fins & leash cups)
take somewhere between
200,000 and 1 million years to degrade.
Fins & Fin boxes
Greenlight Surfboard Supply is currently developing an extensive line of
fins and a removable finbox system with all natural, high performance materials. We will update you as they become available.
For now.....
We recommend making your own natural bamboo glass-on fins or Bamboo Fins to Fit the ProBox System. Greenlight's bamboo fin blank panels allow you to create your own templates and foil - or copy your favorite fin set you currently ride.
