Glyphosate Testing

At Hill Labs, sustainability is more than a goal we have - it’s a responsibility we take seriously. We understand that our operations have an environmental impact, and we’re committed to reducing that impact through thoughtful, consistent action. Last year, our efforts were recognised with the achievement of the Toitū Carbon Reduce Certification, a milestone that marked a significant step in our environmental journey.

It's now been five years since Hill Labs established a Bay of Plenty branch dedicated to serving the New Zealand kiwifruit industry. Our Bay of Plenty branch collects kiwifruit samples from across Auckland, Waikato, Coromandel, Bay of Plenty, and Whanganui. These samples undergo a range of maturity testing at our Tauranga lab, providing trusted results for Zespri, growers, and packhouses to make informed harvest decisions.

Waka Dairies were recently honored with multiple awards in the Horizons Ballance Farm Environment Awards. They are setting new standards in sustainable and efficient farming on their 380ha property in Dannevirke. Managing Director Michael Phillips and Business Manager Andrew Evans, also known as Bubbles, run the farm as business partners to bring it forward by making important decisions every day.
