Constructing America With Washbox - Sustainably

NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- With the popularity of 'Green Building' practices on the rise in the United States, it's no surprise that Washbox,  a forward-thinking Australian technology (www.washbox.com.au) that is revolutionising the handling of liquid waste on construction sites, have now commenced their first project in the USA and have plans to roll out their environmental technology at construction sites across the nation.

For 12 years, Washbox has been used in Australia on its largest, most critical and iconic construction sites from the $8 billion Barangaroo development, to the urban regeneration of Docklands and Darling Harbour, to resort redevelopment on the heritage listed Great Barrier Reef. Recent Washbox case study is available at this link

After this success, in 2018, Andrew Crimston, ( Andrew Crimston bio is available at this link) the founder of Geosentinel and the inventor of Washbox, embarked on a path to international expansion. As a result of those efforts and the outstanding reputation of Washbox, which is now recognised globally as construction best practice, the company has just installed its first Washbox on US soil, at the Lend Lease head office redevelopment at 200 Park Ave New York.

Lend Lease Corporation, a global leader in construction with outstanding credentials in the green building and social accountability space has been an early adopter of the Washbox technology in Australia and Geosentinel in proud to be able to provide the solution to Lend Lease now in the USA, as the first site outside of Australia.

Washbox's mobile water filtration and recycling technology, combined with fully automated processes, remote access and data capture functionality is a game changer for the global construction industry. The system gives visibility and control over washout and liquid waste processes which to date have been poorly handled across the industry due to lack of an available and cost-effective solution.

Washbox removes the need to discharge liquid construction chemical waste to the sewer or ground on a construction site by recycling the washwater and removing the waste as a solid through its integrated filtration system. This protects the sewer system and the environment from harsh construction chemicals, whilst recycling water and reducing waste to landfill. Because it is a fully mobile solution, not requiring any onsite pluming connections it is being credited by clients as being responsible for a significant increase in the productivity of finishing trades on a construction site.

There are more projects to follow in the USA, the UK and Asia in the coming months.

Founder of Washbox, Andrew Crimston, is available for interview.  Please contact 917 284 9019 for more information.
