Over the last year, we at Masons have been developing our waste management strategy with the Environmental Innovation Centre (EIC). The aim was to use the waste hierarchy to make better, more sustainable choices for our resources.
69% of landfilled waste comes from construction and we're committed to helping reducing it
In 2025 we diverted over 3.5 tonnes of landfill
In 2025 we prevented an estimated 7.78 tonnes of carbon emission

Warehouse Waste Diversion
At Masons, we’re looking to use resources more efficiently and move towards a more circular model. We recognise that waste is a major challenge in the building industry (69% of landfilled waste comes from construction and demolition!), and we are committed to playing our part in reducing it.
Introduction to the “Waste Hierarchy”
Masons are proud to be collaborating with the Environmental Innovation Centre to establish a waste management plan across their Auckland and Christchurch warehouses that aligns with industry best practices and customer expectations.
Joanne Low, MSc (EnvSci), Lead Environmental Analyst from the Environmental Innovation Centre explains Waste Hierarchy and the steps Masons is taking to minimise waste.
