Anston Paving Stones

Anston Paving Stones is proud to be the first paving manufacturer in Australia to be certified Carbon Neutral. This was achieved through conduction of a complete carbon footprint analysis by the Carbon Reduction Institute. CRI calculated Anston's emissions from electricity, fuel, waste; staff travel, assets and expenses. Emissions from raw materials made up the largest part of the footprint.

Anston purchase energy efficiency carbon credits from the HELP project to offset their unavoidable carbon emissions. Through regular emissions monitoring and annual re-audits, Anston can confidently claim to be truly carbon neutral.

Anston Paving Stones was keen to become Carbon Neutral as a demonstration of its commitment to environment and to continue to be a leader in its field. To demonstrate its commitment to the environment Anston Paving Stones has planted 20,000 trees on its own property over the last 10 years.

Steele Associates

Steele Associates Architecture are an environmentally conscious company that have taken large steps to reduce their impact on the environment. They have engaged the Carbon Reduction Institute to quantify the emissions produced from the running of the business and recommend measures to reduce these emissions. The Carbon Reduction Institute has created and surrendered greenhouse abatement certificates to offset these emissions, making Steele Associates the first NoCO2 certified carbon neutral construction and architecture business. The Carbon Reduction Institute will monitor the emissions produced by Steele Associates to ensure their carbon footprint is reduced and remains offset.

Steele Associates undertook an apartment renovation for the ACF using energy efficient lights and appliances and environmentally friendly products. 

Steele Associates took another step for the environment and had all the emissions generated from the renovation calculated and offset by the Carbon Reduction Institute.  This involved calculating the embodied emissions of all the products used in the renovation a well as emissions from power use onsite and travel to the site and then offsetting these emissions using carbon credits created through energy efficiency projects.
