About Future Post
With Future Post, it's always greener on the other side of the fence.
Future Post New Zealand has developed a trademarked product. We recycle domestic and commercial waste plastic into premium products that perform better, for longer. Suitable for a wide range of conventional and specialised applications.
Designed by a fencer. Built for a farmer.
Future Post was founded in the time-honoured Kiwi way of trying to find an ingenious solution for a challenging problem. While attempting to install a fence on an old rubbish dump site, fencer and farmer Jerome Wenzlick found his wooden fenceposts were breaking as he tried ramming them through all the buried waste plastic in the ground.
With a passion for the environment, Jerome had the revelation that if he could build a stronger fencepost from waste plastic, he’d also help solve a bigger environmental problem, leading to a commitment to produce premium products, that perform better, for longer.
