Dive-gear manufacturer Apeks Marine Equipment says it has attained an “industry-leading” objective – it is now sending zero non-hazardous waste from its Blackburn factory, warehouse and offices to landfill.
Sa halip, ang lahat ng pangkalahatang basura nito ay ginagawang biofuel para sa pagpainit at mainit na tubig.
“A healthy and thriving planet is central to the Apeks, and our parent company Aqua Lung’s, business ethos,” said Apeks MD Landon Helsby.
"Noong 2014 nag-install kami ng mga solar panel sa bubong ng pabrika, na noong 2016 ay nakabuo ng 80,022 KWh ng kuryente, at ipinagmamalaki namin ang aming mga tagumpay sa pag-aalis ng basura sa landfill at pamumuhunan sa isang napapanatiling hinaharap."
Apeks described its Health & Safety Manager Andy Atkinson as the brains behind the project.
“We’ve worked with local company Frank Barnes to achieve this goal,” he said, “but real credit must go to all of our staff at Apeks who have embraced the zero-waste project, and who have taken time and effort to ensure that we’re working in the best way possible as a business.”
