TREE PLANTING PROGRAM
In 2019 we started a new Wainwright Facades initiative where we are committed to support Carbon Positive Australia (formally Carbon Neutral Charitable Funds) tree planting program. Our employees have also offered to make a donation out of their wages each week.
Carbon Positive Australia specialise in biodiverse conservation plantings using trees and shrubs that are native to the region that will regenerate the natural landscape protecting Australia’s environment for future generations.
Landscape restoration and broad scale native tree planting is essential to prevent Australia losing large proportions of its biologically and evolutionarily unique fauna and flora. Additionally, trees are major players in carbon sequestration (storage). Carbon Positive Australia works on some of the largest native tree planting projects in Australia. Since 2006 Carbon Positive Australia has planted over 5.6 million native trees across 3000 hectares.
If you have any questions or suggestions, we would love to hear from you.

2021 Tree Planting Project
We are so proud of the number of trees we have donated over the past year, so we were excited to find out that the Carbon Positive Australia tree planting project will be a bit closer to us next year near Nimbin, NSW. Donated trees will be planted on 29 hectares of Widjabul Country which will aim to:
-
Provide increased habitat for fauna (including koalas)
-
Create additional corridor planting between two national parks
-
Restore previously cleared dry rainforest
The increased stocking in the dry rainforest will improve biodiversity and encourage further natural regeneration. The corridor will allow species movement from one area to another, supporting species development.
For more information on the project you can get a PDF fact sheet from Carbon Positive Australia here.
