Implemented by The Ranch at Laguna Beach in California.
The Ranch at Laguna Beach was one of the first golf facilities to adopt the glass crusher and sand screening equipment. This enables them to create the required grades for bunker and divot blends improving their sustainability while making huge cost saving each year. And the glass sand plays great if you are unlucky enough to spend a bit of time in the bunkers.
Implemented by Turtle Bay Resort in Kahuku Hawaii.
The Turtle Bay Resort in Hawaii was an early adopter of the Expleco Glass to Sand technology within the golf industry to provide an onsite glass recycling solution for 408 guest rooms. The Glass sand is screened and use in various landscaping and golf applications across the two 18 hole championship Fazio and Palmer courses on site.
Six courses on one property is a lot of glass waste.
The Landings Golf & Athletic Club in Savannah Georgia is easily our largest golf facility. With six 18 hole courses feeding off a central hospitality hub, the club generates more than its fair share of glass waste. We are hopeful to expand on the initial pilot to provide a multi-unit or AFS solution to provide a scalable solution on site and potentially throughout the community.
Bottle today, bunker tomorrow at Pelican Hill in California.
"A bottle today, a bunker tomorrow! Recycled glass bottles are ground into sand right here on property, reducing our costs and environmental impact. We'll raise a glass to that. Sustainability matters." Pelican Hill is a fine example of a property making small incremental changes with dynamic sustainability outcomes in both hospitality and across 36 spectacular golf holes.
An ancient and yet progressive club in Scotland.
The Crail Golfing Society was formed in 1786 as the 7th oldest club on the planet. With a progressive mindset the club was instrumental in the development of the women's game and the game of golf in general. It is no surprise that glass to sand equipment found its way to this iconic peace of history as sustainability concerns grow in the golf industry.
Sustainability in an East African island paradise.
The Anahita Golf Resort in Mauritius was designed by Ernie Els and completed in 2008 to USGA standards.

Trevose is Golf & Country Club is one of those understated gems. The team is clearly setting measurable and attainable targets towards improving the facilities and also the environmental impact of running a golf course. It is no surprise the European Tour and Ryder Cup player Peter Baker labelled Trevose a must visit golf experience.
A UK golf club with a commitment to sustainability.
The installation of a GLSand glass crusher at the club, reinforces the clubs commitment to reducing waste and improving sustainable practices on-site. The innovative team no longer relies on external recycling collections or sending glass to landfill with the ability to now process and repurpose glass waste for use in and around the facility.
