Today is World Environment Day, which is celebrated annually on June 5 around the globe to encourage awareness and action for the protection of the environment.
Winslow is committed to reducing plastic pollution in the environment and is invested in using science and technology-based solutions to tackle this issue.
Winslow is using sustainably based outcomes, such as EKOPipe to reduce pollution.
In addition, Winslow will be removing plastic from the environment by avoiding plastics in the supply chain and picking plastic rubbish from the environment to ensure plastics don’t end up in waterways and our oceans.
Our projects will be showcasing what they have done to make a positive impact in reducing and removing plastics from the environment
We are driven to find sustainable outcomes through innovative solutions, such as the EKOPipe.
The EKOPipe innovation helps us achieve our environmental and sustainability goals, and the use of more sustainable production methods helps us reduce our environmental footprint.
Last week, Winslow Infrastructure received the very first order of this amazing solution for the Bradmill Remediation Project in Yarraville, the first project in Australia to use product.
The pipe reduces concrete CO2 emissions by more than 50 per cent, which exceeds the 2030 commonwealth emissions targets.
“Our commitment to sustainability factors into every decision we make on Winslow sites,” said Allan Campbell, Winslow Infrastructure’s Environment and Sustainability Manager.
“It’s this drive for sustainable outcomes that pushes innovative solutions, like RCPA’s EKOPipes - a carbon reduced steel-reinforced concrete pipe and is the first of its kind in Australia.
“It’s another reason that Winslow is leading the way in the civil construction sustainability by utilising new technologies and finding better ways to do our job.
“EKOPipe is a game changer for the use of concrete pipes for our projects.”
