Being an outdoor sport, disc golf is a sport that brings us closer to nature. Whether you are hiking up a wooded fairway, launching a drive across a grassy park, or enjoying the sound of chains echoing through a mountain course, it is easy to appreciate the outdoors when you are playing. It makes sense that disc golfers want to protect the planet and the places where we play.

With Earth Day here, this is the perfect time to highlight the disc golf brands that are stepping up for sustainability. More manufacturers are turning to recycled materials, earth friendly plastics, and greener production practices to reduce their environmental impact. The best part is that these discs are not just eco conscious. They fly just as well as their non-eco counterparts. If you want to go greener with your discs, here is a closer look at the companies making it easier to throw responsibly.

Infinite Discs

Infinite Discs offers I Blend plastic, which is made from recycled materials. By using recycled plastic, the amount of new plastic required is greatly reduced, lowering the environmental impact of manufacturing. Most Infinite molds are available in I Blend, making it an easy choice for players who want a greener option.

I-Blend is a durable plastic that feel amazing! What makes it even better is that it costs a little less than other premium plastics. It feels great, costs less, and utilizes recycled materials. I-Blend is my favorite plastic and I recommend giving it a try.

Latitude 64

Latitude 64 has introduced a Recycled Line that reuses leftover materials from their regular production runs. These plastics come from misprints, factory seconds, and excess plastic that would otherwise end up in a landfill. The result is durable, great feeling discs with unique swirly colors created by the mixed plastic. They perform like premium plastic with a softer feel and slightly more grip, and many players actually prefer them. Popular molds in the Recycled Line include beginner favorites like the Diamond and Pure, making it easy for new players to start with eco friendly plastic. Latitude 64 also earns bonus points because their factory runs on 100 percent renewable energy.

Dynamic Discs and Westside Discs

Dynamic Discs and Westside Discs share Latitude 64’s production facilities, which means they also share recycled plastic efforts. Westside Discs offers Tournament Recycled, created from leftover Tournament blend materials. Dynamic Discs offers BioFuzion plastic, a recycled blend made from Fuzion plastic.  These plastics tend to be slightly more understable than the originals, which can be a benefit for many players who are still refining their form. Both BioFuzion and Tournament Recycled provide high performance, distinctive looks, and a smaller environmental footprint.

Discraft

Discraft has also taken steps toward sustainability. One of their ideas is Recycled ESP plastic, created by reprocessing scraps and leftover materials from their ESP line. These recycled runs are usually limited releases, so they do not stay in stock for long, but they offer a premium feel with a lighter environmental load. Discraft also focuses on reducing waste throughout their manufacturing process by improving efficiency, minimizing scrap, and repurposing unused materials.

Other Eco Conscious Practices

Smaller brands and custom disc dyers are experimenting with water based dyes and biodegradable packaging. Some disc golf bag manufacturers are beginning to use recycled fabrics and materials, which is a trend worth watching.

Shopping Green: Tips for Eco Friendly Disc Buying

If you want to shop greener, look for recycled plastic labels such as R2 Neutron, BioFuzion, I Blend, Recycled Line, or Recycled ESP. Buying factory seconds or misprints is another great option because they are often cheaper and help reduce waste. You can also check packaging to see whether retailers use eco friendly shipping materials like compostable mailers or recycled boxes.
