Sustainability
The destructive impacts of climate change are becoming more and more visible every day. We at Aqua Metro believe it is our responsibility, as well as our clients and suppliers, to revolutionise the way municipal infrastructure is constructed. We pledge to make every effort to not only reduce our footprint but leave a lasting legacy of sustainable and environmental improvements for all our projects and corporate activities.
We recognise our obligation to reduce and eventually eliminate our carbon emissions, utilise construction materials with high recycled content, reduce waste and eliminate pollution so that future generations can enjoy the environment in the same, if not better, condition that we have.
Aqua Metro’s core CSR values are aligned with our clients in the Victorian Water Industry and can be best summarised as our desire to contribute impactfully and positively towards the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Our key areas of focus are Gender Diversity, Disability Inclusion and Support, Indigenous Participation, Decarbonisation and Circular Economy Practices.
Aqua Metro has introduced Solar Site Offices – completely energy self-sufficient utiliising Solar PV and Lithium-Ion Battery technology.
GeoKrete – Our exclusive Geopolymer Lining Technology extends the life of existing assets and reduces carbon emissions by 59%.
Electric Car and Charging Station – not only building the infrastructure to charge electric vehicles but also upgrading our fleet to electric (and potentially hydrogen so watch this space).
