Pathway to Net Zero: Insights from Logan Workshop
Learning to Lead in Sustainable Manufacturing
Today, our team attended the “Achieving Net Zero” Workshop at the Kingston Butter Factory Cultural Precinct—hosted by the Department of Regional Development, Manufacturing and Water (DRDMW) and Logan City Council. This session focused on how businesses, especially in manufacturing, can reduce emissions and adopt sustainable practices in preparation for a lower-carbon future.
Expert Guidance from The Ecoefficiency Group
Penny Prasad and Jane Gaffel from The Ecoefficiency Group shared expert insights into:
Implementing practical sustainable manufacturing practices
Measuring and reducing carbon footprints
The financial and operational benefits of decarbonisation
Preparing for mandatory greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting
Their message was clear: sustainability isn't just good practice—it's a necessity.
Key Takeaways for B&C Plastics
Wendy Kent and Megan Hibbert attended on behalf of B&C and came away with actionable insights, from cost-saving energy strategies to tools that support emissions tracking. We’re excited to start applying what we’ve learned to improve our sustainability efforts even further.

We’re proud to be based in Logan, a region where the local council actively supports and educates businesses. Special thanks to:
