Reduction in Water Use, Waste sent to Landfill & 100% Renewable Energy
Colormaker’s environmental initiatives include:
- The use of LED lighting throughout the warehouse and office complex

Solar Power
Recognising our environmental responsibility both locally and globally, Colormaker is committed to continually improving performance in this area. In September 2019, Colormaker installed solar energy, with a 356 solar array on the roof of the factory and office complex, which was officially opened by Federal Member for Warringah, Ms Zali Steggall OAM.
These solar panels generate enough energy to power Colormaker’s manufacturing and at peak times they export enough clean energy back into the grid to power 20 homes. Furthermore, the electricity Colormaker Industries produces saves the production of over 150 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year.
