Can you help NZ Remembrance Army?

Denise from Marewa

Seeking family for the following soldiers buried at Taradale (Napier) cemetery and don't have a headstone. We still can get them one if no-one comes forward but we must first check there is no-one who may wish to object.

Also Benjamin Paul Leadbetter, WW1 25897. Napier City Council don't know where he's buried. Neither does any family we've been in contact with or the Catholic Church who probably did his funeral.

Is there any who DOES know where he's buried. We are unable to proceed without an exact location.

Please email napierwargraves@gmail.com for any of these soldiers.

What happened to the Cockroaches.

Bruce from Napier South

Have not seen one since autumn, cleaned out the garden shed a couple of weeks ago, their usual habitat but not one in sight. Much appreciation for their apparent departure but curious as to why.

The technical advancement of recycled yarn production has led to textiles which are not only more environmentally friendly, but emulate the soft handle of virgin fibres. In this article we explain the process of transforming post-consumer plastic bottles into recycled polyester yarn, through an investigation into the production of our first recycled product Kumo Recycled by James Dunlop.

Woven in 92% recycled polyester and 8% polyester yarn, Kumo Recycled presents a modern perspective on fibre construction. Available in 15 decorative shades, Kumo Recycled is suitable for those seeking a high-performance wide width sheer that is fire retardant and has a weighted selvedge in both residential and commercial applications, elegantly framing the view in any setting.

THE RECYCLING PROCESS:
At the recycling facility, post-consumer PET bottles are magnetically sorted by a metal detector and the labels are washed off with water in a revolving cylinder called a Tromel. The clean PET bottles are then sorted into types and colours by a near infrared ray and spectrum camera before being shredded into flakes underwater.

Separation occurs as lighter plastics float to the tank’s surface. The flakes are dried in a tumbler, then rinsed with sodium hydroxide, dried, rinsed in water, and dried once more. Residual contaminants and metals are then blown out and the flakes are shredded into smaller flakes, ready to be used to produce a liquid polymer (resin).
