Kia Ora New Zealand. We’re Green Gorilla™ and with a Gorilla-sized dose of Kiwi ingenuity, we develop sustainable recycling and waste solutions to help businesses minimise landfill waste whilst maximising recovery and recycling. Because we believe in leaving a cleaner, greener Aotearoa.
Green Gorilla™ operates the largest commercial, industrial, construction and demolition resource recovery facility in New Zealand. Landfill is our last resort, and nothing keeps the Gorilla happier than recycling Kiwi business waste. No matter what your industry, we have a solution for you.
Sustainability is more than just a buzz word for us. It’s our whole reason for our existence. Green Gorilla™ was started back in 2010 with a simple thought: someone needed to do a better waste diversion job for New Zealanders, and it may as well be a bunch of Kiwis!
