There is a lot of talk around clean sports. Unfortunately, this often doesn’t include the environment. A single tennis ball may not be particularly significant. But we are talking about millions of balls each year – just in Switzerland.
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
Tennis balls are currently a disposable product. Rubber, nylon and cotton are firmly glued together - which is why they cannot be separated through conventional recycling. With new methods and a simple service, we are now making it possible to recycle tennis balls properly.
Throwing away is out. We believe in circularity as an alternative to the linear economic model.
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
We are the exclusive partner of Renewaball in Switzerland. Some of the balls we collect with you are sent to Renewaball for processing. From them, new, circular balls are created to meet the highest standards.
Every ball counts! Help us to make our favourite sport more sustainable. Our recycling preserves valuable resources, saves CO2 and creates social jobs in Switzerland.
