Creating Plastic Solutions for a Sustainable Future
Who we are
There’s an old sporting adage about young players that ‘If they’re good enough, they’re old enough’. You could say the same about PPL. We may only have been in business since 2012, but we lead the way in providing plastic solutions to the New Zealand market. Whether we’re talking dry glazing products – essentially, the gaskets, seals and other critical plastic components of modern window solutions – or flashings for residential cladding or even highway marker posts and hydroponic growing systems, our goal is to be the ultimate plastics one-stop-shop.
Our technology
You don’t get to be New Zealand’s pre-eminent plastic profile company without top-drawer technology. Our Hamilton factory houses eight profile extrusion lines and four injection moulding machines, all cutting edge pieces of kit from leading suppliers in Europe and Japan. That investment in technology means we consistently deliver quality products, and have the flexibility for both high- and low-volume work.
Our markets
We pride ourselves on providing plastic solutions for a diverse range of applications, whether it’s a boat protection strip, a shower gasket or a road marker. Our next customer could be from the glazing or marine industries, from roading or construction. As well as standard extrusion products, we can custom design and manufacture profiles for almost anyone. We’re in the solutions business, after all.
Our responsibility
At PPL, we’ve owned our responsibility to be a more sustainable business. In fact, it’s become a bit of a crusade. Led by a sustainability team that meets weekly, we’ve slashed our waste going to landfill and found new ways to use seemingly unusable material. It’s a journey, but we’re well on our way.
