Environmental Statement

As an environmentally responsible company, we embrace every opportunity to develop a sustainable future. Our commitment to the environment extends well beyond the recyclable case housing our technologically advanced inverters.  Highly skilled engineers have designed products that not only outlast most of our competitors, but can be easily repaired and recommissioned to last even longer – should anything ever actually fault! This commitment reflects our philosophy to design and manufacture products that abstain from a ‘throw-away’ society. The manufacturing process for all of our products generates very little waste.  Our quality-focussed employees recognise the importance of waste minimisation and even strive to exceed our stringent waste management programs.  In fact, with so many different recycling bins, Latronics recycles just about everything from cardboard to copper to the components of obsolete PCBs. Unlike most other manufacturers, our manufacturing process is also carbon neutral.  With over 25kW of panels masquerading our building roofs, it could be argued that our manufacturing process even ‘helps’ the environment as we often export more power to the grid than we use.  No other manufacturer in Australia can say the same! One of our secrets in minimising our environmental impact is that our buildings and premises take advantage of the abundant natural surroundings.  Natural lighting and as much natural ventilation as practically possible is integrated into all buildings – significantly reducing our need for electricity.  Incorporating water tanks, solar hot water, native plants and even a solar cooker, we aim to make a healthy and sustainable use of our environment. By continuously monitoring and reducing our impact on the environment, we can confidently assure our customers that any Latronics product purchased is manufactured under the greenest circumstances.
