HY-TEC’s commitment to sustainable development is demonstrated through actions across a balanced program of business based initiatives.

To reduce the effect if its operations on the environment, HY-TEC have implemented initiatives designed to maximise natural resources and product conservation through:

• The capture and reuse of waste water in our concrete manufacturing process.
• Export of excess concrete waste to external manufacturing facilities for further use in the construction industry.
• Optimising the use of alternative materials in concrete mix designs.
• Life cycle management initiatives including recycling of settled sludge from truck wash bays through aggregate quarries as rubble and development o flow strength mixes with the use of recycled aggregates from crush waste concrete.
