Canvas Plus | Kaiwaka is a renowned brand that specializes in PVC and canvas manufacturing. With a rich history dating back to 1972, when Kaiwaka Saddlery was established as a one-man operation, the brand has continuously evolved to meet the needs of its customers. Initially focused on saddles, horse equipment, and feed, Kaiwaka Saddlery quickly became a favorite among horse enthusiasts in the Kaipara region.

In 2015, the brand introduced HUSHTEC, a revolutionary range of noise mitigation products that gained popularity throughout New Zealand. With the Kiwi ingenuity at its core, HUSHTEC helped projects comply with strict noise regulations and garnered a loyal following. The brand expanded its product range to include PVC and canvas materials in the early 2000s, catering to diverse needs such as custom boat covers and industrial tank covers.

This growth led to a new purpose-built factory, enabling even greater manufacturing capabilities. In 2010, the business took a new direction and was renamed Canvas Plus Limited, focusing solely on PVC and canvas manufacturing. Today, the company, now known as CPL Group Limited, offers a wide range of products and services, with a particular focus on aviation, construction, and demolition sectors.

Recently, the brand founded SEA GUARDIAN, a smart pollution prevention system that has gained international recognition. With its commitment to innovation and quality, Canvas Plus | Kaiwaka continues to expand its presence globally, with five locations in New Zealand and distributors worldwide
