Allproof Achieves Toitū Bronze Certification on Auckland Production Facility

Toitū is an internationally recognised, science-driven organisation supporting businesses to achieve sustainable outcomes.

Allproof has made significant progress in improving the sustainability of its operations in recent years. Achieving Toitū bronze certification for its main Auckland production facility further strengthens the company’s credibility and commitment to environmental and social responsibility.

The Toitū enviromark® certification process uses a robust Environmental Management System (EMS) to assess and reduce environmental impact while improving operational efficiency. This structured approach helps manage environmental risks and opportunities, supporting more sustainable business practices.

The bronze certification focuses on best practice business processes, ensuring health, safety and environmental requirements are fully addressed, planned, implemented and regularly reviewed. By monitoring these areas through an EMS, Allproof can operate responsibly and continuously improve.

Allproof’s environmental values have driven numerous improvements over recent years. The company runs a waste reduction and on-site recycling program, reusing material waste from its own manufacturing. Additional waste separation ensures any remaining materials are responsibly processed rather than sent to landfill.

Many Allproof products are manufactured using 100% recycled polypropylene sourced from post-consumer streams. Producing long-lasting products from recycled materials significantly extends the life cycle of plastics and reduces waste.

The Auckland facility covered by the Toitū bronze certification also harnesses clean energy generated by 450 rooftop solar panels, preventing 50 tonnes of CO₂ emissions every year.

Other sustainability initiatives include transitioning to an electric and hybrid vehicle fleet, achieving Best Environmental Practice (BEP) certification, using biodegradable pallet wrap, supporting local environmental groups such as Pest Free Kaipātiki, and implementing advanced PPE technology for improved worker safety.

Certification by a respected independent organisation such as Toitū gives specifiers and end-users confidence in Allproof’s strong environmental and sustainability values, ensuring the company continues to deliver responsibly made, premium products.
