We’re thrilled to be among the finalists of ‘outstanding calibre’ in the 2017 Air New Zealand Cargo Export NZ Awards.
More specifically, as finalists in the Baldwins Intellectual Property Best Use of Commercialisation for Export Category which recognises:
Abodo products are created from FSC® certified, sustainably harvested New Zealand plantation forests – and we now export 85% of our products to over 30 countries worldwide.
It’s been a 15 year journey of innovation for Abodo, including patenting a new form of engineered natural wood cladding along with a low toxicity wood preservative – all with the goal of minimising toxicity for people and the environment.
Winners will be announced on June 29 at Sky City Convention Centre.
Responding to customer demand for greater fixing depth, builders will get an extra 10mm where they need it most. Replacing the 65mm, the new 75mm Cladding Screw is arriving in September 2026.
An enhanced Protector coating formulation, is being rolled out. Factory coating of the new Protector – Patina is now happening, with Straw and Teak changing over in August.
Abodo introduces a breakthrough that reshapes what’s possible in timber design: Vaaro Fire, an ultra-durable, fire compliant timber* - all from one trusted manufacturer.
Lead times for our main Vulcan® Cladding, Decking, Screening and Panelling lines, temporarily extended.
