While the surf spirit embodies values such as respect for nature and people, the only boards you could find on the marketplace were highly toxic for both the planet and the shapers’ health.
Providing surfers with boards that truly match their values, whilst being as accessible as possible, is the aim of NOTOX .
Inventor of eco-built surfboards, we have been challenging ourselves to produce ever-more responsible and sustainable boards.
Fair Materials
Let’s stick to the facts…
A classic surfboard generates twice of its weight in waste, among which nothing is recyclable, and everything is highly toxic.
NOTOX boards produce waste for less than half their weight, 75% of which is recyclable.
Materials are sourced as close as possible to the NOTOX lab to ease the carbon footprint.
The material comes from an organic natural origin or from recycling and produces no toxicity for people and nature.
Performance
Thinking ethically doesn’t mean we don’t care about technology and performance. It’s the other way around.
Through a decade in development and production, design and materials bring our boards improved capacities, not just for the sake of statistics, but to seek the best surfing experience possible.
Lighter and easier to handle whilst providing more resistant and better absorbing vibrations, our boards are designed for fun.

Flax
The use of Flax is probably what you will see first on our surfboards.
For the greenOne® we engineered a new generation of multi-axial flax fabric.
Natural fibers bring more flexibility as well as a strong dynamic.
You will feel an instant board response and increased speed all whilst absorbing vibrations.
It is not only beautiful, 100% natural and renewable, but it is dynamic and improving the performance of the greenOne®.

Non-volatile cleaners
For 500 surfboards a year, the surfboard industry would use 1.5 tons of acetone,
a very volatile, toxic and harmful solvent, which can cause severe health issues for the shapers and is toxic for our environment.
Instead we use only 100 kg of non-volatile solvents (non-VOC) which are harmless for the shapers and the atmosphere.
