Tennis balls are usually played for a few hours before they end up in the incinerator. We want to change this – with a simple recycling system for all of Switzerland. Get involved!
4,000 tons of CO2
are emitted by the production of tennis balls in Switzerland
Up to 80,000 km
that’s how far a ball travels – from the raw materials to the court
30 minutes
to 10 hours
is the average lifespan of a tennis ball
8 million tennis balls
are discarded in Switzerland each year
We are launching a simple recycling system for tennis balls
Tennis clubs throughout Switzerland can set up our collection boxes
Players can throw their old balls in the boxes right after the game
As soon as the containers are full, we collect them free of charge
New raw materials are created from the balls
Each ball counts! Help us to make our favourite sport more sustainable. Our recycling preserves valuable resources, saves CO2 and creates social jobs in Switzerland.
