A New Zealand company that makes fence posts out of soft plastic will soon be manufacturing its products in the South Island.
That means collection points for the Soft Plastics Recycling Scheme are expected to be re-established across Nelson and Marlborough.
Future Post managing director Jerome Wenzlick said the company started making fence posts nearly five years ago in Auckland, using soft plastic waste.
I like the concept and the engineering, my only concern is with the longevity of plastic. Will it leach into the soil and will particulate shaven off by the wind / debris / etc. cause more micro plastics to be airborne.
