URGENT: Save Future Post. Save NZ Recycling.
Help Future Post recover from a devastating arson attack so we can continue turning NZ plastic waste into sustainable product not landfill.
Future Post, New Zealand's world-first manufacturer of recycled plastic fence posts, is fighting for its future after an arson attack caused more than $1 million in damage to our Waiuku facility.
Although the person responsible has been caught, the financial impact has left us in a critical cash flow crisis. Without immediate support, Future Post may be forced to close its doors.
For years, we've transformed New Zealand's waste plastic into durable, long-lasting fence posts, diverting millions of plastic bottles and soft plastics from landfill and giving them a second life. Our work also supports New Zealand's soft plastics recycling network, helping ensure the plastic collected at participating supermarkets continues to be recycled.
If Future Post closes, New Zealand loses more than a manufacturer. We lose local jobs, valuable recycling infrastructure, and an innovative circular economy solution that has taken years to build.
Every donation, large or small, will help us recover from this devastating event, protect local jobs, and keep plastic out of landfill.
Please help us get back on our feet and ensure this proudly New Zealand innovation continues for generations to come.
Yes, we had insurance, but this has only covered $186,000 of what we need to keep the doors open.
Use of funds:
Recovering from the arson attack, site clean-up, replacing destroyed stock, restoring operations, and covering lost revenue caused by damaged products. Every dollar helps us rebuild, protect local jobs, and keep New Zealand's plastic recycling moving.
