Polyola and Arctic Foam Partner to Bring Sustainable Surfboard Blanks to the World

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Arctic Foam to launch a new range of environmentally responsible surfboard blanks. Together, we’re proving that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand, without sacrificing the quality surfers and shapers rely on.

‍

Why This Matters

Surfers love the ocean—it’s where we live, breathe, and ride. But we know that surfboards have a heavy environmental footprint. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Arctic Foam to create a more responsible way to make boards. These blanks, made with ⅔ recycled content, produce 73% less CO₂ emissions than standard blanks.

An independent Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) backs up the numbers, showing how these blanks reduce carbon emissions significantly while maintaining the same performance. Same waves, same quality—just made with low-impact materials.

Performance You Can Trust

For shapers, nothing changes except the environmental impact. With Arctic Foam’s proven performance and our innovative materials, these blanks offer the same shaping experience you’ve come to trust.

We’re proud that these blanks are crafted by Arctic Foam, a company with over 25 years of experience making the blanks that world champs and Olympians rely on. Now, these high-performance blanks come with an eco-friendly twist.

Global Reach, Local Shapers

Whether you’re a garage shaper on the East Coast or one of the big names in the industry overseas, Arctic Foam’s global distribution network ensures these new blanks are accessible worldwide. Wherever you are, you can make your next board a sustainable one.
