NZ Made Award-Winning, Solid, Durable, Environmentally Friendly Posts for Horticultural Use.

Future Posts offer a very appealing sustainability story for both the eco-conscious grower and consumer.

"When we decided to setup our new 10ha kiwifruit development, I was very interested in using Future Posts because I could see long-term benefit in a rot resistant, CCA-free post that also shows high durability for load bearing.

It took us a bit of time initially to master the installation of this new product, however we soon adapted a few things and are now extremely hapy with the result. We are proud to actively support NZ recycling too."

Kiwigold's development (so far!) has diverted a whopping 167 tonnes of waste plastic from landfill - equivalent to around 2.13 MILLION milk bottles and 9.5 million BREAD BAGS.
