ABC Tissue – Earthcare tissue paper

ABC Tissue is the only locally owned major tissue company in Australasia. ABC has been in operation since 1985, developing proprietary brands for both retail and commercial customers.

ABC owns Australia's most advanced hi-tech paper mill, located in Sydney. ABC also owns their own paper recycling and de-inking plant in Brisbane.

ABC New Zealand is a locally owned and managed company that has operated in this country since 1998. ABC convert, manufacture and distribute product from their factory in Wiri, Auckland, as well as having a distribution centre in the South Island.

ABC are passionate about the sustainability of the forests and ecosystems that supply them with the initial raw materials for their products. In particular, they source post-consumer waste paper for the manufacture of their environmental brands.

They have their own mill where de-inking and recycling takes place. Their processing is chlorine-free, enabling them to recycle virtually all mill waste water, and any solid waste material is recycled as soil conditioner. ABC tissue is manufactured to have the fastest breakdown possible.

Through these actions, they are able to save around 550,000 trees per annum, 105,000 barrels of oil, 1.3 billion litres of water and 1.72 million kilowatt hours of electricity. In addition, they save 42,000 tonnes of waste paper from going into landfills, where each tonne would have taken a cubic metre of space and emitted the equivalent of four tonnes of greenhouse gases._{1

Green Earth Solutions

Greenearth Solutions is an Auckland based manufacturer of cleaning chemicals and have been for over 10 years. They have significant experience in the formulation and mixing of cleaning solutions for industries requiring a high standard of cleaning performance.

Greenearth detergents were developed because they felt that there was a need for eco-friendly cleaning products specifically for the commercial cleaner. That is the products had to be made from green, natural and renewable resources but also and just as importantly they had to perform just as well as the petroleum based cleaning products currently being used today.

Greenearth Solutions like to think of Greenearth as their contribution to a not only green, cleaner environment but also to a major reduction of pollutants entering our waterways via the sink and drain. They find great satisfaction in being part of a successful company and an even greater satisfaction when that company plays its part in helping build a better future for the environment.

GreenEarth Solutions range of natural and eco-friendly cleaning detergents are manufactured from natural and renewable raw materials. Because these eco-friendly products are made from plants and minerals they leave no harsh chemicals fumes or residue and because they are 100% natural, they are better for the environment as well.

Natural Choice

Natural Choice staff pride themselves on the quality of their cleaning products. They always use the highest grade raw materials, sourced from companies in New Zealand. All their packaging bottles and cartons are made from recycled materials or purchased from local recycling distribution businesses. While Natural Choice doesn’t have any official certification they abide by the recommendations set by the Ministry for the Environment to manufacture products within the limits of their requirements.

Pacrite Industries Ltd

Pacrite Industries Ltd, a family owned and operated business established in 1983, set out to develop a product, Greensac’s that would not only utilise recycled plastic, but would also be made in New Zealand. In addition to this, the product had to incorporate cutting edge technology both in terms of material engineering and manufacturing processes. The requirements for the Greensac range were for the bags to appeal visually to New Zealand consumers whilst maintaining exceptional quality standards and a competitive pricing position.

When Pacrite Industries developed Greensac rubbish bags their goal was to develop and produce a rubbish bag range that contributed to the reduction of plastic waste in New Zealand. During the developmental process they found that while there were rubbish bags on the market that were made from recycled plastic, and claimed to be bio-degradable, they were manufactured overseas. This meant we were helping reduce waste in other countries and not here in New Zealand.

They also felt that the product range should be oxo-biodegradable and not just biodegradable – meaning that it will breakdown over a pre-determined time period, not only in landfills but in water, oxygen and sunlight as well.
