Central to the redevelopment and refurbishment of Radcliffe hospital was creating a sensitive and stimulating environment which would facilitate the increasing number of patients to the medical center. The project consisted of the addition of a fresh two story emergency services theater and the renovation of outpatient and administration areas in the main building. Five years ago Thomas Hassall Anglican College was little more than a signpost with a insignificant enrollment of students. Today it is a prestigious private education institution whose enrollment rate has quickly outpaced capacity. As the school grew, so did the need for a woodworking, metal craft and technical studies wing.

Some of the benefits we yield for our employees include: Lafarge Plasterboard is dedicated to the efficient and sustainable use of water. This tool assists us in making continual improvements in production efficiencies to keep water resources. Improvements in production efficiencies at both manufacturing plants have led us to reduce our overall water consumption each year. One initiative in this plan is the harvesting of storm water for use in the manufacturing process at both Alton and Matraville plants. Lafarge Plasterboard recognizes this environmental impact as a key element in our Environmental Management System (EMS) and seeks to improve energy efficiencies through meaningful operational upgrades and consideration of alternative energy sources. Lafarge has initiated abundant programs to recover and recirculate waste heat back into the production process. Lafarge Plasterboard is committed to an ongoing process of minimizing waste to landfill. We recycle waste gypsum back into the production process. Lafarge Plasterboard is committed to regular improvement in environmental management, principles and practices. We measure and review 75 environmental compliance indicators monthly, including dust emissions, water consumption, energy consumption, estimated CO2 emissions, waste to landfill and waste recycled. Whenever there is rain water in the collection system, the demand of town water required by the process is reduced by 50. Another storm water collection and reuse system is in place at the production plant in Alton, which allows for highest storage of 200,00 liters of storm water. Initiatives to improve production efficiencies have significantly reduced Lafarge’s consumption of automatic gas and water. While The Matraville plant is using a 50 blend of recycled water and town water in their manufacturing process, in Alton, Melbourne they are using 100 recycled water in their manufacturing process when it is available. The heat recovery system also has the potential to conserve up to eight percent of the site’s instinctive gas consumption resulting in energy cost savings of up to 80,00.
