All of these products are “eco-friendly or Green”
Axion Golf Bridges
|
For most golfers, the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful outdoors is what makes the
sport such an enjoyable pastime. What some might not realize is that the activity they
love leaves harmful environmental waste from the ingredients used to keep the links
up to par.
As many golf courses across Florida have begun to clean up their acts with earthfriendly
fertilizing and pest-control methods, a common eco-menace is still hiding in
plain sight – vehicular and pedestrian bridges. These seemingly docile structures are
typically built from treated lumber, which leaches hazardous toxins into the ground and
water.
Based in Basking Ridge, N.J., a new company has entered the scene to address this
environmental. Axion Golf (www.axionintl.com) turns 100-percent recycled materials
into building products for bridges, boardwalks and landscaping features for golf
courses. Lacking the harmful pollutants found in treated-wood, the structures help to
eliminate waste and preserve wildlife habitat.
To the golfer’s naked eye, Axion bridges blend in with the course’s surroundings.
The natural look remains like new over time, requiring no painting and staining, thus
saving money on upkeep and labor.

Dixon Earth ED
|
Improve the World…Improve your Game.
Dixon Earth ED (Eco-Distance), the 1st ever 100% Eco-Friendly golf ball, is good
for the environment and even better for your game. Dixon didn’t have to sacrifice
playability to become environmentally friendly. The Dixon Earth ED plays better
than most two-piece golf balls on the market and even out performed some three
piece urethane cover balls in competitive tests! The Dixon Earth ED is “Green”
to the core. The core is made from a proprietary polymer that maintains the playable
properties of the ball, but ensures that it is 100% renewable. In addition to
the core, the entire Dixon Earth ball is manufactured from materials that can be
totally re-ground to basic elements and used to make other consumer products.
But that’s not all! Even the package is made from 100% recycled material. To
facilitate conservation, Dixon has established a cutting edge Incentive Program to
encourage golfers to return spent Dixon Earth golf balls for a $1.00 credit towards
the purchase of new ones. Each box of Dixon Earth ED golf balls include a return mail pouch so golfers can easily mail used golf balls back to Dixon. From core
to cover, from packaging to production, Dixon Earth is setting a new standard in environmental consciousness. Dixon is excited to lead the golf industry into the
concept of “Green”.

Tehama Green Collection
|
Tehama, the line of high-end contemporary
sportswear for men and women that was cofounded
by Clint Eastwood and Nancy Haley, has
announced the expansion of its Green Collection.
The Tehama Green Collection was first introduced
in January, 2008 at the PGA Merchandise show
in Orlando. Tehama was the first to make a
statement by launching an entire collection of
ECO-FRIENDLY apparel for men and women. As a
result, the industry has acknowledged us as the
leader in the eco-division of apparel.
New Tehama Minerale fabric features
“performance from the earth,” a natural technology
derived from minerals, originally found in
volcanic ash. Minerale improves the performance
and comfort of fabrics by providing exceptional
evaporative cooling, odor resistance and added
UV protection to keep consumers more comfortable
in any environment.
Tehama’s new Seacell is a fabric made out of
Lyocell (a 100% wood pulp fiber) and seaweed
benefiting your health. Seacell brings the benefits
of the ocean to your skin. Upon contact with
moisture, vital amino acids, vitamins and minerals
are released directly into the skin. It hydrates and
nourishes, is naturally anti-bacterial, keeps the
skin smooth and firm, detoxifies and oxygenates,
soothes skin rashes and promotes cell regeneration.
New Merino is better than any other fiber on
planet earth, as it is naturally wicking; it regulates
body temperature and is extremely breathable.
Sweet, not smelly – this fiber doesn’t hold odors,
and is super soft, super fine and most importantly,
super comfortable.
