Escea

For over 15 years, Cargill Enterprises has been a trusted partner to Escea, a leading manufacturer of gas, wood, and electric fireplaces based in Dunedin, New Zealand. This long-standing partnership showcases our commitment to delivering high-quality, customised solutions that supports New Zealand-made products on the global stage.

Escea: A Legacy of Innovation and Quality

Founded in Dunedin in 2002, Escea has grown from humble beginnings to a globally recognised brand. Known for combining sleek contemporary designs with advanced heating technology, Escea fireplaces are loved by customers for their style, performance and flexible installation options. Today, a team of over 160 operates from their growing Dunedin factory, exporting products to homeowners around the world.

The Challenge: Precise Specifications in Export Packaging

With products that feature delicate glass components and refined finishes, Escea requires high-quality export pallets and packaging of various sizes to ensure their fireplaces arrive safely at their destinations, including Australia, North America and beyond. Many of these markets require wood packaging to meet strict international regulations.

The Solution: Custom Export Pallets

We provide Escea with a comprehensive packaging and export solution, including Custom Export Pallets. We create all the export pallets, lids, struts, and cross braces, ensuring the utmost protection for their fireplaces – particularly the glass components. All wood used to build the crates meet international ISPM 15 certified standards, and every component made within ± 1mm of Escea’s specifications. We then supply complete shipping crates in kitset form to Escea, ready for onsite assembly and fireplace packaging.

“Cargill Enterprises hasbeen an integral part of Escea’s lean principles. Over the years, we’ve workedclosely to develop a strong partnership built on timely delivery and qualityproducts. We’re also proud to support local businesses and believe in Cargill’s founding purpose”
