mission

Nine Lights Surfboards is committed to making boards that are more environmentally sound—through the use of sustainable and eco-friendly materials. Our boards are shaped from extruded polystyrene (EPS) foam, which is a thermoformed foam— it's made with steam. This means it can be melted down and recycled, unlike traditional polyurathane foam which is made from a permanent chemical reaction.

Epoxy resin is used to glue together and glass the boards. Epoxy resin is a low volatile organic compound (VOC) resin. It releases less harmful fumes into the atmosphere than polyester resin. And wood, the main structural part of the board, is a renewable resource.

Combining these materials results in a board so strong it will outlast a traditional polyurathane/polyester board, so less end up in the trash heap. Plus, if you ever do somehow break one, put it in the recycle bin instead of the garbage.
