Nuaire’s Going Greener......

As part of our ongoing commitment we set specific objectives last year to reduce the impact that we have on the environment. Based on 2007 environmental objectives and targets, the objective to reduce waste to landfill by 20% was achieved. Waste to landfill in 2006 equated to 110 tonnes, in 2007 it was reduced to 74 tonnes.

Waste data for last year breaks down into the following:
  • General waste to landfill 74 tonnes

  • Paper 19 tonnes (recycled)

  • Metals 393 tonnes (recycled)

  • Hazardous waste 9 tonnes (recycled)

  • Wood 240 tonnes (recycled)

  • Cardboard 72 tonnes (recycled)


  • Total 807 tonnes of which 90% was recycled

    Initiatives already implemented for 2008 is to divert plastic packaging from landfill which is estimated at 9 tonnes.
