Environmental Approach:
- The incorporation of recyclable and sustainable materials, and a design approach that emphasizes both the strength and performance capabilities of each surfboard, result in a process that has less environmental impact than a conventional surfboard.

Daniel Hess builds each board integrating materials with a lower environmental impact such as:
Reclaimed and sustainably harvested wood
Cork- a renewable resource
EPS foam- a recyclable surfboard foam
Epoxy - which emits very low Volatile Organic Compounds and does not require solvents for clean up
Each board uses approximately one half the fiberglass of a conventional surfboard, and is far stronger due to the impact strength of the sandwich construction.
Each surfboard has a lifespan far longer than a conventional surfboard because the wood does not fatigue and break down the way foam can.

The end result is a beautiful, strong, high perfomrance surfboard that lasts longer than conventional boards and has a reduced environmental impact.
