Fonterra

In 2018, Fonterra joined forces with New Zealand start-up Future Post to create 100% recycled plastic fence posts for farms. We supply Future Post with used Anchor milk bottles, as well as other soft plastics – and they upcycle it into sturdy, long-lasting fencing posts for farmers. Fonterra Brands New Zealand’s (FBNZ) Sustainability and Environment Manager, Larisa Thathiah, says the posts are an innovative new way for farmers to improve their on-farm sustainability. “This partnership provides farmers with a more environmentally-friendly fencing option, made from the packaging of our farmers’ milk, which is pretty special,” says Larisa.
