“I want to produce and live in a way that enables my kids to have the same kind of experience I had growing up. That is my way of sustainability.” - Jack Candlish

Jack Candlish is the founder of Verdure, a sustainable surfboard company based out of Wellington, New Zealand.

After noticing a lack of non-toxic environmentally friendly surfboards, Jack started developing and building his own boards full-time in 2017. Using recyclable materials that otherwise would have become landfill waste, Jack aims to create affordable, high-quality boards that also have a minimum impact on the environment.
