At Hastings Deering, we are progressively minimising our environmental impact at all operations. With a number of environmental targets already achieved, our focus is now on the reduction of C02 emissions, waste and water management. To assist our customers, Hastings Deering provides expert advice to optimise equipment maintenance approaches that can improve fuel burn, reduce emissions, reduce component wear and increase service intervals. Leveraging class leading technologies along with practical advice in fleet management, predictive maintenance, collision avoidance and equipment repower options can contribute to improved operational efficiency and lower emissions. Examples include the repowering of D11R dozers where reductions in carbon emissions of 40% are being achieved and the re-engineering of a fleet of underground hard rock loaders where an up to 42% diesel particulate emissions reduction has been achieved.

Hastings Deering has adopted the Caterpillar Production System (CPS), a lean Six Sigma methodology that underpins continuous operational improvement, increased productivity and the relentless drive to eradicate waste.

By embracing sustainable improvements, we can institutionalise the safest and least resource-intensive processes to deliver our services and solutions.
