Sustainability

MPG provide a comprehensive range waste water management and water recycling services for all domestic, commercial and industrial properties across Perth. There has been recent renewed global attention on how we treat non-renewable world resources, as a result local councils and the Department of Health have been reviewing their policies on long term sustainable water processes, what has previously been a grey area and different between local councils is looking toward a more uniform approach to water practises.

MPG has worked extensively with local councils and the Department of Health in implementing, upgrading and installing;

  • Oil Water Separators;
  • First Flush Systems;
  • Chemical Control Systems, including pH Control, Chemical Dosing and Water; Disinfection Systems;
  • Sewer Pump Systems;
  • Storm Water Pumps; and
  • Wash Bay Systems

to assist in the treatment and filter process of stormwater and sewer systems using industry compliant equipment.

RAIN WATER RECYCLING AND HARVESTING SYSTEMS

Mackie supplies and install rainwater harvesting and wastewater recycling systems suitable for a range of industries. Our customised designs minimise mains water consumption by offering a solution suited to the site and operation requirements by utilising run off water for reuse. Stormwater Harvesting captures and stores water otherwise washed into stormwater drains, increase mains waters savings and also provides ongoing savings on wastewater transportation/disposal. MPG’s rainwater harvesting systems have an 80 – 90% recycle water rate.

CORPORATE WASTE

MPG, where practical, encourage a paper free environment. All of our office based services are online and we are mindful about encouraging staff to minimise printing and paper waste. We also work with plumbing suppliers for effective recycling of hot water and plumbing systems and fixtures by dropping our waste at recycling disposal centres.

MACKIE CLEAN UP DAY

Waste disposal in Australia is a major problem; Australia generates approximately 48 million tons of rubbish annually, according to the data from the Department of Environment and Heritage, the waste generated by Australians comes from three main sources including municipal or household waste, industrial and commercial waste, demolition and construction waste.

MPG recognises that understanding and protecting the environment is critical. We continually strive to better manage and minimise the potential impact of our activities on the environment, our policies and practises align strongly with Green Cleaning Practises.  We minimise all environmental impact through careful consideration across all aspects of our business.
