Fatyak Hönö: The World's First Bodyboard Made from 100% Recycled Ocean Plastic
Looking for a bodyboard that’s sustainable, durable, and built to perform? Meet the Fatyak Hönö Bodyboard—the first rigid bodyboard made in the UK using 100% recycled ocean plastic. No polystyrene. No greenwashing. Just a high-performance, eco-friendly bodyboard made to last.
At Fatyak, we don’t do disposable. We design boards for the bold—people who care about the planet and the ride. That’s why we joined forces with Odyssey Innovation, specialists in marine plastic recovery, to create a better solution for sustainable bodyboarding.
Why Recycled Plastic Bodyboards Are the Future of Body Surfing
Let’s face it: most cheap bodyboards are environmental disasters. Traditional bodyboards made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) are lightweight and low-cost—but they’re also fragile, non-recyclable, and polluting our oceans.
A 2018 study by the Marine Conservation Society found an average of 182 pieces of plastic or EPS per 100 metres of UK beach. That includes broken, discarded polystyrene bodyboards—often abandoned after a single session.
Once in the ocean, EPS breaks into microplastics, damaging marine life and entering the food chain. It’s time to ditch the throwaway board and choose a plastic-free bodyboard alternative.

From Marine Waste to Wave-Ready: The Regenerative Process
Our Marine Regeneration Scheme, powered by Odyssey Innovation, collects ocean plastic waste from UK shores and fishing communities. This reclaimed plastic is processed, recycled, and turned into new, high-quality bodyboards like the Hönö.
That means every Hönö bodyboard removes harmful plastic from the sea and transforms it into something useful, durable, and built for impact.
