Avery Dennison has announced the official opening of its new facility, Avery Dennison Berrinba Distribution Centre, that will significantly improve service to customers in Australia.
Strategically located in Berrinba and less than a half-hour drive to Brisbane airports, central business district and major interstate motorways, this facility houses sales and warehousing functions to serve 
as the key distribution hub for Avery Dennison’s Label and Graphic Materials, and Reflectives products to customers along the east coast of Australia.
“The new Berrinba Distribution Centre represents Avery Dennison’s strategic commitment to our customers and suppliers,” said Chris Kilgour, Commercial Director for Label and Packaging Materials, Avery Dennison Australia and New Zealand. “We have incorporated modern technologies and world-class best practices in this new hub facility to ensure fast and efficient response to customers, including next-day delivery to customers in Brisbane and Sydney.”
The Berrinba Distribution Centre runs on a standard 24-hour five day operation and features modern facilities for optimum workflow and storage. Previously operating at a smaller location in Acacia Ridge, this new distribution centre with 22 staff members is certified to 5 Green Star rating, which is the benchmark for sustainable design and energy efficiency. This includes the use of LED lighting throughout the premise, with solar panels for energy efficiency and filtration system to remove contaminants in rain and storm waters before these flows into the sewers. This is the first 5 Green Star rated facility for Avery Dennison in the South Asia Pacific and Sub-Saharan African region.
