X-Sight Surf Co Sustainability Actions

Donates 1% to ocean causes

The brand says it gives 1% of sales to ocean preservation and to support awareness and action on environmental issues. It links this support to the Gowings Whale Trust, which is connected to its parent company. This is a direct funding action, not just a statement of intent. The source does not show independent verification of how the money is used, but it does show a clear ongoing donation practice tied to ocean protection.

Switched to lower-impact packaging

The brand says it has changed its online delivery packaging to biodegradable post bags made from plants and non-toxic renewable resin. It also says its fin packaging uses a paper-based pulp tray made from old newspapers and a recycled PET plastic sleeve, with soy-based ink. These changes are meant to cut plastic waste and make recycling easier. PET means a common type of plastic used in packaging.

Uses lower-impact product materials

The brand says it has created eco-focused products such as NeoGlass Eco, made with 50% glass and Bio-Resin EcoBlend, and the FCS T-3 Eco traction pad, made from sugarcane-based bio-foam. These materials are presented as lower-impact alternatives to standard surf hardware. The source frames this as part of a wider effort to reduce the brand’s footprint through product design, although it does not provide third-party life-cycle data.

Says it is changing the business

The brand says it has made a conscious decision to transition its overall business to a more environmentally conscious and sustainable model. It also says it has several projects in progress to reduce its footprint. This is a broad internal direction rather than a single finished project, so it is best read as an active sustainability program. The source does not give a timeline or measurable target for the full transition.
