Waste management

State of the art recycling and waste management caring for Country and our community.

W Indigenous, a majority owned Indigenous business, focuses on sustainability and caring for Country, while providing career opportunities through direct employment and other small to medium Indigenous Businesses.

W Indigenous acknowledges the connection of people, land and communities in the areas in which we work. We pay our respect to Elders past, present and future.

Metals

We recover various ferrous and non-ferrous metals through our process, which are sent to a local recycler to be processed into new metal products

Cardboard

We recover cardboard which is re-baled and delivered to the Botany processing facility to be made into new corrugated box products

Timber

All recyclable timber is sorted and chipped onsite and is transferred to a local recycling facility for use as garden mulch.

Concrete

We sort heavy materials like concrete which can be sent to a recycling facility where its put through a crushing and screening process to be made into new road base.

Soil

Clean, uncontaminated soil is accepted and screened to remove aggregates to be re-used in local industry or as landfill cover in our own facility.

Aggregates

We separate aggregates to be sent locally for recycling where they are recycled to produce high grade road base and other aggregates for civil construction and infrastructure projects.

The W Indigenous has commenced its Indigenous owner driver program which has shown promising initial progress and strong community engagement.
