Te Whare Wai Para Nuku Moa Point Sludge Minimisation Facility

As October ushers in National Safety Month, I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to kick it off by sharing Why Safety Matters here in Wellington, New Zealand. Working alongside the talented teams at McConnell Dowell and HEB on the Te Whare Wai Para Nuku Moa Point sludge minimisation facility has been both an honour and a privilege.

This world-class project is not only a first of its kind in Aotearoa but a crucial step towards creating a sustainable future by reducing sewage sludge, turning it into a safe, reusable product. By lowering carbon emissions and minimizing waste sent to landfills, this facility represents the kind of forward-thinking innovation that makes a real difference to our environment.

Sharing the WSM experience with the incredible JV project team has been a rewarding journey, and I’m excited to continue collaborating with others who are equally passionate about making safety a priority and contributing to long-lasting change in our industry.
