The "Man from Glad" has been the advertising spokesperson for Glad Wrap
(and Glad storage bags) here in North America for at least 20 years.
 Several different actors have played the part over the years, in a white
suit, white shirt, white tie, and pure white hair.  A very stupid
character, but instantly memorable, so I guess it worked.

I guess the answer to my question is that, no, you don't have him down
under.
