Our Story

Unified Sequential Block

Trash Panda was born
from a simple idea:

to make discs from 100% recycled plastic

Warehouse Group

Because a sport that lives for the outdoors should live to protect it, too.

And it’s that simple idea that led Jesse to quit his job, build a makeshift injection machine in his garage, and start a YouTube channel to document the journey.

Well as it turns out, disc golfers around the world wanted to help make the dream of sustainable discs a reality 🤘

5 years later, and that journey has resulted in 👇

Recycled Plastic

30k+ pounds of plastic recycled ♻️

by being made into disc golf discs thrown in 26+ countries

Disc Recycling Program

18k+ discs recycled 🥏

through individuals, retailers, and manufacturers sending them to our Disc Recycling Program
