Today's episode is one of the first steps we're taking in our Pryda for the Planet campaign. We want to celebrate and promote businesses going above and beyond in the pursuit of more sustainable practices.
This is a two part episode. First we'll be joined by John Recourt (HR & WHSE Site Manager) from MB PreFab Big River Group. John is on a mission to eliminate waste from the fabrication process and find sustainable alternatives to disposing of timber off cuts, plastics, metals, cardboard, paper, printer cartridges and more. MB PreFab is achieving some fantastic results and they're on target to reduce their landfill impact by 95%.
Reducing the environmental footprint is just the start. These initiatives are also supporting local businesses, empowering their employees to take ownership of waste management processes, and having a positive impact on the bottom line with an estimated cost saving of $65k AUD per annum.
Then in part 2, we'll be joined by Russell Norton from the Mulch Centre in Geelong, Victoria. Russell and his team are working with MB PreFab to take their timber off cuts to be processed into other products.
