Environment

Our goal is zero environmental harm – every task, every action, every day

At Sunstate Cement, we are bound to a commitment to minimise our operational impact on the environment. We recognise our responsibility to protect and preserve our surroundings and to minimise our ecological footprint. This policy outlines our approach to environmental stewardship.

Compliance – We are fully committed to compliance with the Environmental Protection Act and the strict conditions placed on us by the Port of Brisbane Authority.

Measurable Targets – We regularly engage in testing a range of environmental impacts-water and air quality, noise, dust and other by-products from our manufacturing operations. Based on these measurements, we set SMART targets for managing emissions, waste and noise.

Leadership – Actively and visibly promoting and demonstrating environmental leadership, together we are focused on building and sustaining a robust and transparent environmental culture.

Sustainable Economy – We strive to achieve sound environmental principles by reusing, recycling, and repurposing materials where possible; reducing waste and promote resource efficiency.

Risk-Aware Culture – Promoting a positive risk culture that encourages the application of a systematic approach to identifying, assessing and mitigating potential environmental risks that arise from the various activities, projects and processes on our site.

Continuous Improvement – Our culture fosters continuous improvement. We encourage employees to propose innovative solutions and we seek to learn from industry best practices.
