Eco-friendly golf reproduction brand FAR5 (Papaibeu) recommended its eco golf balls for golf enthusiasts planning to purchase gifts for friends and playing partners in the spring rounding season.
FAR5's eco golf balls offer a practical price compared to high performance and are eco-friendly items, making them a great gift option that can also convey a meaningful concept to friends and playing partners.
Eco balls are a new type of eco-friendly golf ball with a manufacturing process different from the commonly known lost balls.
FAR5's eco balls are the only eco-friendly golf balls in Korea that disassemble used golf balls and reprocess them to be reborn as new golf balls.
The brand name ‘FAR’ stands for ‘For A Rebirth,’ symbolizing the cycle of used balls being reborn as new ones, and was completed as ‘FAR5’ by analogy to the ‘PAR5 hole,’ the longest course on a golf course. FAR5’s eco balls have received international certification from the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A), fully functioning as certified balls, and also embody the meaning of going far.
Lost balls and recycled balls typically only undergo surface recoating after cleaning, failing to repair internal cracks and the core, resulting in significantly reduced functionality. In contrast, FAR5’s eco balls apply technology that disassembles collected used golf balls using laser technology, converts them into raw materials, and recombines them to create new golf balls. This allows for infinite resource recycling by fully utilizing existing golf balls without waste, ultimately reducing plastic use and realizing sustainable production and consumption.
A professional affiliated with the United States Golf Teachers Federation (USGTF) who actually used FAR5’s eco golf balls said, “I feel that the functionality is no different from other new balls we usually consider high-performance golf balls. Especially, the matte golf balls without coating not only have an eco-friendly appearance but also provide a soft hitting feel, which is great.” He added, “They are also good gifts for playing partners on rounds. It feels rewarding to give a meaningful gift that combines golf balls, which all golfers love, with an eco-friendly message, and the recipients seem pleased as well.”
FAR5 eco balls attract attention from the exterior with eco-friendly triangular packaging symbolizing resource recycling, unlike regular golf balls. The product lineup includes 10-ball 2-piece/3-piece matte/glossy packs and a lightweight 3-ball 3-piece matte pack, allowing you to give fun and meaningful gifts to friends and playing partners.
Eco golf balls can be found on the official FAR5 website, where you can purchase them for yourself or conveniently use the gifting function to easily send them to friends and playing partners.
