Victorian State Minister for Environment and Climate Change Visits Innovative Ecomanufacturer

The Victorian State Minister for Environment and Climate Change, The Hon Ryan Smith recently visited Ecotech (Australia) to find out more about the design and development of environmental monitoring systems.

The Minister toured different divisions at the Knoxfield headquarters including production and testing, research and development, a wind tunnel calibration facility and environmental reporting services, which provides real-time data from over 360 sites to a diverse range of customers.

“I was impressed by the unique and innovative approach of this local family business and the fact that they are constantly developing environmental solutions for worldwide distribution,” said The Hon Ryan Smith.

The company has been working closely with the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Victoria for over 20 years and also has a long association with Transurban CityLink, a leading international toll road developer with assets in Australia and emerging interests in North America.

Partnering with the University of Wollongong, Ecotech has also developed a comprehensive greenhouse analyser which continuously measures all principle greenhouse gases.

“As one of only a few companies who manufacture internationally approved air quality analysers and systems, we have a niche market and export to over 65 countries. We are also a world leader in the design and supply of precursor gas monitoring systems,” said Ecotech Director and Founder, Robert Dal Sasso.
