Bluewater and Sustainable Golf
Golf thrives in nature, yet plastic waste from hydration is a growing problem – at clubs and tournaments. From discarded bottles to the carbon footprint of production, distribution and disposal, the need for a smarter approach is clear.
That’s why Bluewater and GEO Sustainable Golf Foundation have teamed up - to reduce plastic waste, build trust in clean drinking water and drive wider sustainable change in the sport.
Making every drop count.
PARTNERING WITH PURPOSE
Both organisations share a common vision for the role golf can play in addressing clear environmental challenges, to become recognised as a positive force for nature, climate and communities.
So we’re working together to evolve hydration in golf. By providing high-quality refillable bottles and a range of dispensing solutions, Bluewater is helping golfers, venues, and events move away from plastic waste while ensuring access to safe drinking water.
In addition, for every golfer, golf facility, tournament or golf organisation that utilises Bluewater’s solutions, a meaningful contribution is being made to further advance advocacy, innovation, programs, projects and impacts – globally and locally.
The Bluewater Innovation Awards in Golf will also spotlight leadership in plastic waste reduction and wider stewardship of the freshwater and marine environments.
