AUCKLAND, Friday: Botany Town Centre is leading in sustainability by teaming up with saveBOARD. They’ve installed New Zealand’s first eco-friendly hoarding in a shopping centre, diverting over a ton of waste from landfills.
This move showcases Botany Town Centre’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact, setting a new standard for the retail industry.
The hoarding, made from 18,500 cartons and 74,000 plastic pieces, diverted an impressive 1,184kg of waste from landfills.
Kerrie Hughes, Centre Manager, says, “Our partnership with saveBOARD aligns perfectly with our commitment to finding innovative ways to reduce waste and minimise our environmental footprint.

“We are excited to showcase our hoarding to the community and continue our partnership with saveBOARD,” Kerrie adds.
saveBOARD focuses on a circular economy, using 99% recycled materials to create high-performance building panels. These panels, used at Botany Town Centre, are made from shredded composite packaging, recycled boards, and soft plastics.
Paula Wallace, National Specification Manager, says, “saveBOARD is excited to highlight Botany Town Centre’s dedication to sustainability as they spearhead the use of sustainable building materials.
“saveBOARD products offer eco-friendly, cost-effective solutions without compromising on performance or design. It’s a win-win situation all around!”
The sustainable hoarding not only reduces waste but also features a moisture-resistant layer, making it versatile for various applications. Once no longer needed, the panels can be recycled into new boards, embodying the circular economy model.
