Flexicon
At X-ZONE, we’re committed to sustainability at every stage — from the natural ingredients we use to the packaging that delivers them. That’s why we’re proud to work with Flexicon, a local New Zealand-owned company with a focus on eco-conscious packaging solutions.
Based in the heart of West Auckland's manufacturing district, Flexicon was founded in 1993 by Nicolaas Peeters and is now run by his son, Pierre Peeters. With over three decades in the plastics industry, Flexicon has earned a reputation for quality products, reliable service, and a growing focus on environmental responsibility.
Flexicon specialises in blow-moulded bottles and injection-moulded jars, caps, and closures — all food-grade approved and fully recyclable. They also offer a range of colours, volumes (from 30ml up to 1L), and finishing services such as screen printing and hot stamping, making them a versatile partner for Kiwi businesses.
What we value most at X-ZONE is Flexicon’s innovative Sugarcane Packaging — an eco-friendly alternative to traditional HDPE plastic. Derived from sugarcane, this renewable material has the same strength and recyclability as conventional plastic, but with a significantly smaller carbon footprint. By choosing sugarcane-based bottles for our X-ZONE RELIEF SPRAY, SPORTS SPRAY and JOINTS RUB, we’re helping reduce reliance on fossil fuels while maintaining the integrity of our product packaging.
Flexicon’s commitment to sustainable materials mirrors our own mission to support both human and planetary health. We're proud to partner with a local company that shares our vision of a greener future — and delivers top-tier packaging to match.
