We hope you leave Clearview Estate Winery & Clearview Estate restaurant knowing that you have helped us maintain our beautiful piece of Hawke's Bay for future generations through Kaitiakitanga (guardianship and protection) & Manaakitanga (hospitality). We receive an annual Qualmark audit, reviewing all aspects of our business as a tourism destination, receiving a GOLD rating in 2019. We challenge & change our packaging to avoid plastic & styrene, eliminating plastic straws since 2018. We purchase locally, recycle & repurpose where-ever possible, donate food scraps to the local pig farmer, compost our organic wastes, and mulch our gardens to maintain moisture and suppress weed growth. In our restaurant we take many measures to monitor & reduce our impact upon the environment. At the early stages of winter we prune back the apparently "dead" vines and mulch the debris back into the soil preparing both for the next seasonal growth cycle. Making wine from grapes that have been grown sustainably has a cyclical life pattern. We also produce our own compost from the pressed grape skins to fertilize our vines & avocados. In addition to our concrete waste disposal and resource recovery services, we also provide crushed concrete aggregate, product sales and delivery including: Crusher dust. We accept a variety of demolition debris including broken bricks, concrete, tiles and rubble. For example, we graze sheep in lieu of using herbicides, and recycle trellis posts and other materials. Cleanaway’s construction waste removal service is EPA-approved. Our vineyard team work with Sustainable Wine Growing New Zealand (SWNZ) to reduce the impact of viticulture on our environment. “There is clearly a demand for this, and we will continue to work toward a solution that will allow for a public dropoff recycling program that is effective, clean and secure,” Bonar added.Our restaurant, vineyard and winery are constantly working towards increased sustainability & best practice.

CLEARVIEW RECYCLING CRACKED
Company officials noted the majority of recyclables collected in the United States are transported to China for final processing.Ĭhina has cracked down on the recyclables it accepts and absolutely refuses contaminated items.Īmong the items that had been collected at the sites were paper goods including newspaper, brown paper bags, office paper, magazines and non-confidential mail. Republic Services, a national firm specializing in recycling and non-hazardous solid waste collections, contracts with the Solid Waste Authority to pick up the recyclables and transport them to the Green Star facilities in Pennsylvania for processing before being shipped to China.Įarlier this spring, Republic issued a letter to its customers regarding contaminated containers. The county recycling project has been operating for about 24 years, she said. However, it only takes one piece of the wrong trash to contaminate the bins. She said she appreciates that so many in the recycling public have followed the rules clearly posted at the collection sites.
