At a Glance

The customer is one of Australia’s leading waste management providers with extensive operations throughout Australia. Committed to a more sustainable future, they collect, treat, recycle or safely dispose of all types of waste.

With hundreds of waste management facilities located across Australia, the client processes a large amount of end-of-life domestic and commercial white goods on a regular basis. However, before white goods such as fridges, freezers and air conditioning units can be processed for disposal, crushing and/or recycling, any residual refrigerant gas must be safely removed to prevent potential refrigerant gas leaks.

Challenges

  • Efficient management of hundreds of end-of-life white goods requiring processing on a regular basis across multiple sites.
  • Mitigate environmental impact by preventing refrigerant gas leaks from end-of-life white goods.
