Environment

As a quality assured company Treloar believes in good practice when it comes to environmental projects.

Environmental Works

Specific Environmental Works which have been undertaken include riverbank erosion control and rehabilitation (in particular for Mount Roland River care Catchment Inc.),dam spillway reconstruction, landslip re-establishment (for example, Lorrinna Road landslip reinstatement for Kentish Council) and vegetation clean up, other works include silt pond cleaning for agricultural industries such as Webster Fresh and Simplot.

Landfill & Recycling Site

Treloar owns and operates a licensed landfill located within the Municipality of Devonport. This site also doubles as a materials depot for the civil works team and a sales outlet for customers. It is one of the four licensed landfill sites on the North West Coast in which general inert landfill is recycled and re-used throughout the construction industry.

Landslip Control

This unique technique creates an ideal support, reducing landslides and erosion for those areas prone to movement particularly in high rain fall mountainareas. These wire crates are filled with blue metal, providing support and the perfect drainage material.

HSEQ

At Treloar Civil & Quarries we are serious about health and safety. We have three main strategies to achieve our objective.

  • Integration of health and safety into the design/engineering of our works;

  • A workplace culture that encourages, demonstrates and expects safe and healthy behaviours; and

  • Measuring, assessing and reporting to support and continuously review the first two elements and our objective.

In accordance with legislation, Treloar Civil & Quarries actively encourages individuals to take responsibility for their own health and safety as well as that of their colleagues and of their workplace. Treloar Civil & Quarries three phases of safety work in harmony to produce an environment for our people that promotes health, safety and protection of the environment as HOW WE WORK.

The safest workplaces do not come about by accident, they are safe and healthy by design. The integration of health, safety and environmental management into the planning, engineering and design of our works is an important element of Treloar Civil & Quarries approach.
