   Victorian Premier the Honourable John Brumby gives Davey's Max Ekins the thumbs up.A company wide focus on sustainability as well as a suite of water pumping and transfer products that enable consumers to achieve high efficiency in their water and energy use, has won Davey Water Products the Large Business Award in the 2008 Premiers Sustainability Awards.
   
   Presented by Victoria's Premier John Brumby in Melbourne last evening, the Award recognises the multiple approaches which Davey has implemented especially at its national headquarters and manufacturing base in the Melbourne suburb of Scoresby.
   
   Davey spokesman Max Ekins said that the Award success has flowed from a company wide approach which has created a ‘house of quality' concept incorporating all three aspects of the bottom line- people, planet and profit.

   Mr Ekins said that some of the key achievements over the eight months that the project has been in train include reducing and recycling all grades of waste to reduce landfill from 350 cubic metres to 65 cubic metres a month - an 82% reduction by volume and 42% by weight.
   
   The major gains were recorded in reducing cardboard and paper and plastic wrapping waste.
   ...
   "While our overall output has remained unchanged Davey has achieved a 30% reduction in Green House Gases per unit made" Mr Ekins added.
   ...
   Mr Ekins noted also that Davey has worked closely with numerous government and industry initiatives from the Manufacturing Best Practice - Lean to Green Master Class, the Victorian Government's Savewater!Alliance program and the Green Plumbers program which has now trained over 4,000 plumbers in water and energy efficient products and practices.
   
   "Achieving success in the 2008 (Victorian) Premiers Award for Sustainability in the Large Company Category is a signal result for all at Davey Water Products.
   
   "I anticipate our success will encourage many other businesses to review their internal sustainability practices and procedures and with a company wide approach be able to reap significant benefits" Mr Ekins concluded.
