New Zealand switched from paper to polymer for its entire circulating series in 1999, contracting Note Printing Australia — a subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of Australia — to produce notes for a direct economic competitor. The arrangement was entirely practical: NPA had pioneered Guardian polymer substrate with the Reserve Bank of Australia and offered the technology commercially before any other printer could match it.
