How PGA Tour Events Protected Fans and the Planet. One Kiosk at a Time!

At PGA Tour events across the country, Vital Signs Media’s public sunscreen dispensers proved that wellness, sustainability, and sponsor engagement can all go together. Installed at major tournaments including the Arnold Palmer Invitational, THE PLAYERS Championship, and FedEx St. Jude Championship, our eco-friendly sunscreen kiosks helped fans stay protected while drastically reducing plastic waste.

Engaging Fans, Protecting Skin

Over the course of five major PGA Tour events, more than 68,000 total engagements were recorded across our network of sunscreen kiosks.

• Each kiosk dispensed free SPF 50 sunscreen, keeping fans safe from harmful UV exposure.

• On average, 1,770 people per event used a Vital Signs Media sunscreen kiosk.

• Top-performing locations like FedEx St. Jude Championship saw more than 2,400 engagements per kiosk, proving that sunscreen access drives real participation.

 Reducing Plastic, One Refill at a Time

Together, these events replaced over 700 plastic bottles and more than 10,000 individual single-use sunscreen packets, waste that would otherwise have ended up in landfills or scattered around event grounds.
By offering refillable, battery-powered sunscreen dispensers, PGA Tour sponsors helped turn wellness into measurable environmental action.

 Sponsor Impact and Brand Visibility

Each tournament partnered with a different healthcare or wellness sponsor —from Orlando Health to Baptist Wolfson Health— showcasing how brands can align with meaningful, eco-friendly engagement.
Sponsors benefited from:

• High-visibility brand exposure through kiosk wraps and messaging

• Positive audience interaction with every sunscreen use

• Data-backed engagement metrics showing ROI in real time

This proves that sunscreen kiosks aren’t just amenities — they’re engagement tools that connect sponsors to communities in ways traditional signage can’t.

The Big Picture

Vital Signs Media’s kiosks are redefining how large-scale events approach both public health and sustainability.
Each refill helps reduce plastic, promote sun safety, and give sponsors a new way to do good while doing business.
