Sustainability

Our sustainability policy encompasses various aspects of our operations, from equipment choices to waste management. The object of this Environmental policy is to provide all commercial and private customers with confidence and complete satisfaction in all of Queensland Hire products, practices, and people. This Policy formalises our commitment to supporting the principles of environmental sustainability and recognises that a sustainable environment is central to our lives and our work.

The aim of our Sustainability Policy is to:

• Implement and monitor environmental actions within the company
• Communicate environmental initiatives internally and externally

Here are the key principles that guide our sustainability efforts:

Product Selection:

• We prioritise the selection of event equipment and infrastructure solutions that have been produced in a sustainable manner, or are reclaimed from other operations.
• We continually explore and integrate environmentally conscious options into our inventory.

Efficiency:

• Reducing the consumption of natural resources in daily operations in all of office, warehouse and on-site events, including water, paper and energy.
• We invest in energy-efficient technologies to reduce our overall energy consumption.
• Our commitment to efficient transport logistics aims to minimize our carbon footprint.

Waste Reduction:

• Maximising the recycling of resources, including repair and up-cycling damaged or unused equipment to become a new product or warehouse solution.
• Our aim is to reduce single-use items, promoting the use of reusable and recyclable materials wherever possible.

Sustainable Partnerships:

• We seek out and collaborate with suppliers and partners who share our commitment to sustainability.
• We prioritise local suppliers to reduce transportation-related emissions.
• Employee feedback is valued, and we encourage ideas that contribute to our sustainability objectives.

Client Education:

• We can educate our clients on sustainable event practices and offer guidance on making environmentally conscious choices.
• Our goal is to foster awareness and inspire positive environmental actions within the event industry.

Queensland Hire is dedicated to integrating sustainable practices to our business. By embracing these principles, we aim to contribute positively to the environment, reduce our ecological footprint, and inspire others within the event industry to join us on this journey towards a more sustainable future.
