Home » About Us

New Zealand Ceiling & Drywall Supplies (NZCDS) is a specialist trade supply company offering an extensive range of plasters, compounds, tools, tapes, screws, and drywall accessories. We stock a carefully selected mix of internationally recognised brands and locally produced products, supporting professional plasterers, drywall fixers, builders, and contractors, as well as DIY customers across New Zealand.

Our pricing is designed to remain competitive and practical, and our growing online store ensures easy access to our full product range no matter where you’re located.

NZCDS is a 100% New Zealand owned trade supply business with branches from Auckland to Christchurch. Founded in Penrose in 1992, we’ve grown from a small local supplier into New Zealand’s largest specialist provider of drywall and plastering supplies.

In 2025, we returned to our roots with the opening of a new Penrose branch, bringing us back to where it all started and strengthening our ability to support Auckland’s trade community from one of the city’s most accessible supply hubs.

That same year, NZCDS moved back into private New Zealand ownership under an active owner/operator model. This has sharpened our focus on personal service, strong relationships, and genuine industry connection.

At our core

we’re here for the people who do the work. We back plasterers, fixers, and builders with reliable products, practical support, and real respect for the trade. After all, behind every great paint job is a bloody great plasterer, and NZCDS is proud to support them every step of the way!
