At Material Hub, we are dedicated to providing a more sustainable and efficient way to sample architectural building products. By minimizing individual courier deliveries, reducing packaging waste, and saving valuable time, we aim to revolutionize the sampling process in the building industry.

In New Zealand, it’s estimated that over 20 million product samples are sent each year. Alarmingly, a significant portion of these samples—up to 30%—ends up in landfills, contributing to the growing waste crisis in the construction sector. This not only adds to environmental degradation but also represents a missed opportunity for resource recovery and reuse.

By ordering a collection of samples through our platform, you can consolidate what would typically require 5, 10, or even 15 separate courier deliveries into a single, convenient box. This approach significantly reduces carbon emissions associated with transportation and minimizes the environmental impact of excessive packaging.

Our free return service enables you to send samples back for reuse, effectively preventing them from becoming waste. This practice not only promotes sustainability but also offers a better return on investment for your materials.

Additionally, our material sample boxes and packaging are made from sustainable materials, further reducing our collective carbon footprint. By choosing Material Hub, you are not only improving your sampling efficiency but also supporting a circular economy that prioritizes sustainability.

We invite you to join us in our mission to create a greener future for the building products industry. Together, we can make a substantial difference in reducing waste and promoting sustainable practices within our communities.
