Winstone Wallboards starts despatching wallboard from new Tauranga plant

30 August 2023

New Zealand: Winstone Wallboards has started despatching wallboard produced at its new Tauranga plant around New Zealand’s North Island. General manager David Thomas said that GIB wallboard products made in the new plant had achieved performance levels consistent with those of wallboard made in the company’s Auckland and Christchurch plants. Earlier in August 2023, Ross Taylor, the chief executive officer of Fletcher Building, Winstone Wallboards’ parent company, said that the Tauranga plant had commenced production. The site is scheduled to become fully operational by the end of October 2023.

New Zealand government broadens Plasterboard Taskforce's remit to products beside gypsum wallboard

28 November 2022

New Zealand: The government has renamed its Plasterboard Taskforce as the Critical Materials Taskforce and extended its remit to other building materials alongside gypsum wallboard. The expanded taskforce's aim will be to prevent product shortages, with a focus on maximising productivity and cushioning the effects of supply-side dangers. The government foresees further materials shortages amid anticipated 'global trade headwinds.'

Minister for Building and Construction Megan Woods said “While we can be optimistic about the opportunities for our economy, we also need to remain cautious. We know we are facing a period of global turmoil." Woods continued “The Critical Materials Taskforce will build on the successes of the Plasterboard Taskforce, and use the valuable lessons learnt to be proactive and forward-looking, so we can identify emerging risks and respond as quickly as possible. Bringing together construction, building consent and supply chain experts into a taskforce earlier this year showed how government and the sector successfully worked together to troubleshoot plasterboard shortages quickly and pragmatically.”

New Zealand's gypsum wallboard imports grew by a factor of five year-on-year to 4.6Mm2 during the first 10 months of 2022. Domestic producer GIB said that it will continue to operate at full production capacity through the 2022 Christmas - New Year period in order to rebuild resilience stock levels. The company continues to make deliveries based on an allocation system. It asked customers to contact their retail suppliers if they have any spare pallets for collection, to help with deliveries.
