Driven from our goal to reduce waste to landfill and the improve the environmental footprint for Rhino, our plastic mud guard recycling launched in 2021 was a NZ first in collaboration with some of New Zealand’s leading truck and trailer companies.  This is a world-first and a great example of a circular product.
