The Green Behind the Gold
 GCCM
has in the last 12 months significantly increased our green approach to
marine industry. With a nil discharge to the river & new Clear-Make
system that recycles all wash down water whilst removing any
particulate matter for disposal offsite.
Recently GCCM purchased a brand new street sweeper which you'll see roaming the yard. This machine is far more than just a sweeper in that it actually vacuums the concrete & allows for dust & debris that would otherwise be washed into drains & filtration units to be disposed of quickly & easily.
Rain Harvesting is also a key point for GCCM. Nearly all of our gardens & wash down water is using rain water harvested off the some 35,000m of factories located on site. "Tip" Don't use any taps maked "Non potable water" for drinking though!
