From Vision to Reality: Celebrating 3 Years of saveBOARD NZ! 🎉 Today marks three years since we started installing our first saveBOARD plant in New Zealand - a milestone that feels even more remarkable given the challenges we faced. Check out this never-before-seen timelapse footage showcasing our equipment installation day, condensing 8 hectic hours into just minutes! 🏗️ Looking back to October 2021, it's almost hard to believe what we accomplished. With global travel at a standstill and NZ's borders firmly closed due to the COVID pandemic, our international installation team from the US and Czech Republic secured crucial MIQ spots through the Construction Sector Accord. Even moving between regions within NZ required careful navigation of local restrictions. But with careful planning, the right expertise, and a stroke of good weather, we pulled it off. Our team's determination and ingenuity turned this ambitious project into reality, setting the foundation for what saveBOARD has become today. Three years on, we're proud to be leading the circular economy revolution in the built environment. While we've come a long way, this installation day reminds us of where it all began - and fuels our excitement for the next chapter of our journey! 💚♻️ #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #Innovation #NewZealand #GreenBuilding #saveBOARD #BusinessMilestone #SustainableConstruction

🌍 It's NZ Recycling Week! But at saveBOARD, every week is recycling week. Did you know saveBOARD plays a crucial role in New Zealand's recycling infrastructure? Through the support of The Packaging Forum and its members, we help power the Food & Beverage Carton Recycling Scheme and the NZ Soft Plastics Recycling Scheme . With both carton and soft plastics recycling volumes growing steadily, it's important to remember that recycling only works if there’s demand for the finished products. That’s why we're committed to driving sales of our sustainable building products, ensuring these valuable materials stay in circulation. So, next time you’re choosing building materials, consider saveBOARD – a product that not only supports recycling initiatives but also helps keep materials out of landfills and in use for longer. 🔗 Find your nearest carton and soft plastics drop-off points here: - Drop-off cartons https://lnkd.in/g9U5UdRE - Soft plastics drop-off locations https://lnkd.in/eb9ACGY #DoYourPart #SupportNZRecyclingInfrastructure #EveryWeekIsReyclingWeek #PackagingForum

🌍 Celebrating World Ecolabel Day! 🌍 We’re proud to announce that saveBOARD is the first company in New Zealand and Australia to be a jointly certified licensee under the new MoU framework between GECA and Eco Choice Aotearoa. Why did we pursue both ecolabels? To give our clients absolute confidence that our commitment to sustainability is authentic. At saveBOARD, we’re dedicated to leading the way in circular economy products, embedding this approach in every step of our process—from sourcing waste materials to delivering our finished products. While we’re not perfect, we’re transparent, and these certifications give us independent proof of our efforts. Over the last 9 months, we’ve had 5 products assessed against GECA’s Panel Boards standard and 6 against the EcoChoice Aotearoa standard. Each of these products underwent rigorous, independent, third-party evaluation based on science-backed criteria. This dual certification is a milestone for us, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable practices and giving specifiers the confidence they need when choosing building materials. Independent certification is essential to our mission—it shows our clients they have a genuine, sustainable choice in the market.

Mountain biking has been tearing up trails since the first all-terrain bikes hit the US in 1981, and by 1984, they were shredding through Australia & New Zealand complete with Fluro Lycra outfits. Fast forward 40 years, and this widely available sport is still one of the world’s fastest-growing outdoor adventures—and a number of us at saveBOARD enjoy the sport. That’s why we love seeing our clients deck out their bike storage with our Exposed Internal Lining. Not only does it look sleek, but it’s practical too! Mud? No problem. Pre-finished surface, easy to wipe down and hides dirt like a pro. Need to hang gear? Just pop hooks or brackets straight into the wall—no studs required! And the best part? It’s a win for the planet. This bike wall alone saved 100kg of packaging waste and stopped 86kg of CO2 from hitting the atmosphere. 🚴♂️🌍 Ride safe, store smart, and feel good doing it! #LoveMountainBiking #BikeStorageGoals #EcoFriendlyLiving

🌈 Celebrating Diversity & Inclusion at saveBOARD! 🌈 At saveBOARD, diversity and inclusion aren’t just words—they’re part of our culture. To show our commitment, we’ve created our very first Rainbow Flag saveBOARD art board, a bold and colorful symbol of support for the LGBTQIA+ community. 🌟 While embossing the rainbow flag onto our boards was a fun and creative challenge, it carries a deeper meaning—one of respect, unity, and equality. They are currently both displayed on our factory walls and we are in the process of gifting these pieces to a local NZ & AU Rainbow charity. Innovating sustainably while championing inclusivity is at the heart of what we do. We are stronger together! 💪🏳️🌈 #DiversityAndInclusion #PrideInTheWorkplace #RainbowBoard #saveBOARD #InnovateForGood #LGBTQSupport #Sustainability
