Mainfreight is a world-renowned logistics company, founded by founder Bruce Plested in 1978 and listed in New Zealand in 1996. At present, Mainfreight has 200 branches and more than 8,000 employees worldwide. It is headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand, with the main business scope involves air& ocean, transport, and warehousing.

Mainfreight has 10 warehouses in Auckland, one of which is for appliance home delivery, producing 70-100 cubic meters of waste polystyrene, packaging waste from unpacking whiteware & furniture deliveries every week  (95% would be whiteware like washing machines and fridges). Some waste transportation companies will take away this polystyrene waste regularly, and the charge is 10NZD/m3. The monthly disposal cost of polystyrene is 4,000 New Zealand dollars, and it costs approximately 50,000 New Zealand dollars to dispose of waste polystyrene every year.

In September 2020, the person in charge of home delivery at Mainfreight found INTCO Recycling and learned about the total polystyrene recycling solution.
