Join us on the 24th of October for this interactive workshop designed specifically for small and family-owned manufacturers looking to:
- Improve energy efficiency in production processes.
- Reduce material waste and optimise resource use.
- Explore sustainable sourcing and supply chain practices.
- Understand emissions reduction strategies and their impact on your business.
Manufacturers attending the workshop will gain:
- Practical insights on how to implement sustainability initiatives that drive cost savings.
- A deeper understanding of emissions reduction options specific to manufacturing operations, such as energy-efficient machinery, waste reduction, and renewable energy sources.
- Tools and resources to better access and interpret data relevant to emissions and resource efficiency in your business.
Following the workshop, participants will also have the opportunity to engage in a 1-1 consultation with sustainability experts to review their current practices, discuss specific technologies, and identify improvement opportunities tailored to their manufacturing processes.
This workshop will also highlight the recently launched $20m Small Business Energy Efficiency Grants Program, which provides matched funding between $2,500 and $50,000 to help businesses:
- Upgrade to energy-efficient manufacturing equipment.
- Reduce energy consumption in day-to-day operations.
- Implement waste reduction initiatives.
- Adopt sustainable production technologies.
This event is open to South Australian manufacturers with less than 20 full time equivalent employees, or family-owned businesses of any size which have not participated in any other South Australian Government programs focusing on environmental, net zero, circular economy and other sustainable business practices.
