Calling all biodiversity and conservation enthusiasts in Tāmaki Makaurau! We’re hosting our first BioBlitz at our Ōtehā campus on Saturday 4 March.

The goal of a BioBlitz is to identify and record as many species of plants and animals as possible within an assigned timeframe. The event will provide an exciting opportunity for the community to come together and learn more about the biodiversity of the significant ecological bush area that backs onto our Auckland campus.

The event runs from 8am to 10pm, with the meeting point at the Sir Neil Waters lecture theatre. The day will include guided walks through the bush, including a night walk in the evening, talks by science experts around collecting and interpreting the results of the environmental DNA (eDNA) captured and food trucks, along with face painting and bouncy castles on campus for the tamariki.

Customer Feedback Example:
We build portable accommodation and find the BlackBox to be a great unit.
They are located outside the building so that if there is ever a blockage/leak or any other problem, there is no mess inside and the toilet doesn’t have to be removed to get access like other macerator units.
This also means that there is more space internally in an already tight ensuite as you don’t have a macerator attached to the back of your toilet and pushing it away from the wall.
These are a great solution! (Josh)

Customer Feedback Example:
The BlackBox is a great unit. Does its job well and very easy to install. Perfect for our tiny home. Tim was also awesome to deal with and got the unit to us very fast.
(Johnnie)

Customer Feedback Example:
We have been using Blackboxes for years on our customer’s Tiny homes and also on our own property.
A fantastic product, easy to install & service, solidly built, and extremely reliable. Highly recommend! (Koru Cabins)

WHITE, BUDGET CHINESE MACERATORS ARE NOT A COMPARISM IN PERFORMANCE.

BEST QUALITY, LOWEST PRICE
