Case Study: Dow Brings Circular Solutions to GLBI
Value chain partners tee up circular solutions at the Dow GLBI
As a GEO-certified event, the hallmark of the (GLBI) in Midland, Mich. is its commitment to sustainability. The 2022 tournament minimized water, waste and greenhouse gas emissions, also helping advance circularity. Since 2019, Dow has worked with key partners across the value chain to reuse and recycle plastic mesh fencing—equivalent to one ton of plastic—to create useful golf tools as part of Dow’s GLBI Closed Loop Initiative.
Dow, recycler KW Plastics, molder Core Technology Molding Corporation and sustainable golf leader Evolve Golf came together to find a new life for the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic mesh fencing from the previous year’s GLBI in the form of 20,000 ball markers and 5,500 divot tools for this year’s event.
