The Hunter and Central Coast region is collaboratively working towards developing the local circular economy. With a view of our region’s strengths and challenges, the Hunter JO has co-designed the Hunter and Central Coast Circular Economy Roadmap to showcase our successes and set a path for the next 12 months. This enables us to collaborate and accelerate towards our longer-term shared vision of being Australia’s leading regional circular economy.
Join us for our networking breakfast as we introduce our Roadmap and take a dive into what is happening across the Hunter. Hear from industry and local circular economy experts about circular economy projects and initiatives throughout the region
Bin Trim Circular Economy Manufacturing Pilot Workshop - 10am-12.30pm
HunterNet have been awarded a Bin Trim pilot to:
- undertake Bin Trim assessments in the Manufacturing Sector in Hunter areas in accordance with the updated Bin Trim Roadmap
- extend Bin Trim assessments beyond the normal waste and recycling review and actions that encompass all circular economy actions to also review, and develop actions and support implementation to the top 5 (approximately) materials that come into a the businesses and packaging leaving the business
- tailor the assessment to the business’ priorities and needs to transition to a circular economy
- provide recommendations on how Bin Trim can be modified to support the targets outlined in the Waste and Sustainable Materials Strategy 2041 and the NSW Circular Economy Policy Statement
The principal aim of the workshop is to identify existing recovery pathways for waste outputs within manufacturing and alternative material sources for manufacturing inputs that can replace virgin materials in other enterprises.
Time will be allocated to register your interest in the pilot project.
You will also have the opportunity of hearing from Mike Ritchie, Managing Director of MRA Consulting, one of Australia’s leading waste experts.
