SUSTAINABILITY

For more than eight years, UZIN UTZ South Pacific has proudly partnered with Coast Youth Community Trust (CYC) to support young people. CYC supports young people facing barriers to education by connecting them with vocational training, apprenticeships and pathways into meaningful employment. Through in-kind product donations and ongoing support, we have contributed to programmes that help create lasting opportunities for young people and their families.

"We are hugely grateful for the support we have received from Walter and the team at UZIN UTZ South Pacific Ltd, which has enabled young people to gain vocational education, training, and employment, which they otherwise would have not been able to do"

~Josh Sandford, Director of Coast Youth Family Trust~

We are also proud supporters of Variety – the Children’s Charity, helping provide essential resources and educational opportunities for children facing financial hardship. Here is a recent quote from one of the parents of the children.

"I'd like to say the biggest of thanks to you and your company for being so; generous, kind for sponsoring my [child]. It has truly been the most amazing & blessed feeling ever & for that I thank you again.

I truly appreciate everything you have helped with, like new lunch box, new warm clothes & socks & shoes. Plus my [child starting] his 2019 school days off right with all his stationery & not having to miss out or stop a bill to afford it was a huge relief."

Supporting organizations that strengthen communities reflects our belief that long-term success is built not only on quality products, but also on creating positive social outcomes where we live and work. Especially as New Zealand has the largest opportunity in the OECD to invest in learning and development for youth and young professionals to increase the work effectiveness and preparing them for the future of work.

Since the 1990s, the UZIN ECOLINE range has been recognised for delivering low-emission flooring systems that support healthier indoor environments. Today, many products achieve EMICODE EC 1 PLUS certification and carry the prestigious Blue Angel environmental label, reflecting UZIN’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and indoor air quality.

These internationally recognised certifications provide architects, specifiers and contractors with confidence when selecting products for projects where environmental performance and occupant wellbeing are priorities. By combining low emissions with proven installation performance, UZIN ECOLINE helps deliver sustainable building outcomes without compromising quality or reliability.
