Proud to Support Queensland Rail — Because Protection Matters, On-site and On the Move

At EcoZinc, we’re more than just a sunscreen company — we’re part of the daily lives of working Australians. That’s why we’re proud to support Queensland Rail, a cornerstone of transportation across our state, and the hardworking men and women who keep Queensland moving.

Why Queensland Rail Deserves Support

Queensland Rail has connected communities across Queensland since 1865, operating both suburban and long-distance passenger services, and maintaining more than 6,600 km of track and rolling stock across the state. Their workforce — more than 7,500 strong — ensures that every day thousands of commuters, families, workers, students and travellers can safely reach their destinations.

But that’s more than just trains and tracks. QR is committed to building a safe, inclusive, and high-performance workplace. Their guiding principles promote respect, diversity, health and safety — values we share at EcoZinc.

Why Sunscreen Matters for Rail Workers

If you work outdoors — loading freight, maintaining infrastructure, or performing trackside duties — you know the sun doesn’t take a day off. Long hours in the Queensland sun can mean repeated exposure to harmful UVA and UVB radiation. For a rail-industry professional, standard safety gear and PPE should include reliable sun protection.

That’s where EcoZinc comes in. Our SPF50 mineral sunscreen, powered solely by non-nano zinc oxide, delivers broad-spectrum protection that stands up to harsh Australian conditions. No chemical UV filters, no hormone-disrupting actives — just clean, physical protection that sits on the skin and reflects UV like a shield.

For QR workers and contractors who spend time outdoors, EcoZinc offers a practical, trustworthy, and skin-safe way to reduce sun exposure — a small but meaningful addition to workplace safety and wellbeing.

Shared Values: Safety, Local Manufacturing, Real Protection

Our commitment to quality mirrors Queensland Rail’s commitment to safe, reliable service. EcoZinc products are manufactured locally — in Rocklea, Queensland — not outsourced overseas. We believe in supporting Australian jobs, manufacturing with integrity, and giving people honest, high-performance protection.

By supporting QR, we support the people who keep the state moving: those building, maintaining, and running the railway networks that connect communities, families and businesses.

A Call to Action: Skin Safety for All Workers

To every QR employee, contractor, and rail-industry worker reading this: think of sunscreen as part of your daily safety gear. Just like hi-vis vests, hard hats, or steel-cap boots — reliable sun protection shouldn’t be optional.

Switch to a zinc-only, broad-spectrum sunscreen like EcoZinc SPF50. It’s strong enough for a worksite, gentle enough for sensitive skin — and built right here in Queensland.

Because if you’re out in the open all day, under the harshest sun, you deserve nothing less than honest protection.
