As the expectations on corporate social responsibility (CSR) increases around the globe, companies are recognising the requirement to act on sustainability from how they procure raw materials, practice responsible sourcing, improve energy use in operations and reduce wasteful packaging. CSR is not only important for the community, it’s equally valuable for the company as it boosts employee satisfaction, giving them a more connected purpose to the world around them.
One company that has embraced CSR is Eco Resource Recovery (ECORR) a family owned and operated business located in Wetherill Park, New South Wales. Evolving from its civil engineering contracting roots eight years ago, Working in the Sydney market, offering a licensed facility operating under accredited Environmentally Safe Practices.
ECORR recognises the evolving importance for sustainability and have introduced innovative resource recovery and circular economy solutions into the operation of their business. Resource recovery is where waste is used as an input material to create products as new outputs. Recovering over 99 per cent of the company’s total waste including brick, asphalt and soil wastes that are then repurposed into performance engineered road bases, aggregates, sands and stabilised products.
ECORR has achieved an incredible 99 per cent recovery rate every year from 2017 to 2021, living up to its corporate tagline ‘Yesterday’s waste is the foundation for Sydney’s tomorrow.’
‘Our custom approach of working with our clients from the design phase to help them identify circular solutions, source cost competitive recycled alternatives and realise the competitive advantage of circular thinking makes us unique in this industry’ comments ECORR’s Managing Director; Martin O’Connell.
Experiencing significant business growth since taking over the processing and operation of products themselves in 2021, ECORR have plans for further expansion with a strong pipeline of projects over the coming years. Past infrastructure projects have been on a Federal, state and local government level, along with environmental and rehabilitation projects across New South Wales.
ECORR’s performance in the recycling industry is heavily reliant on productive, efficient and robust machinery for the quick loading, screening and crushing of waste materials. ECORR have chosen Hitachi Construction Machinery (Australia) Pty Ltd (HCA) as the provider of earthmoving machinery. This is due to the tailored suite of solutions ranging from technology based solutions that monitor machine performance to technical support and a 24/7 nationwide customer support team.
In the ECORR plant fleet, there are three Hitachi ZW330-5 wheel loaders and three Hitachi ZX360LC-5 excavators and an additional ZX360LC-5 on order due for delivery mid-2022.
‘The purchase process of these machines was simple, the easy going nature and responsiveness of Barry Cahill (Hitachi Major Accounts Manager) and Adam Scully (Hitachi Sales Representative) made the process pleasant and stress-free’ adds Martin.
Similar to ECORR, HCA works on initiatives that support the environment and community with the future in mind. Through the processes developed and implemented at the Hitachi Reman facilities, currently ninety percent of used products are being refurbished back into new componentry. Last financial year, Hitachi Reman took in 5,132 tonnes of used components, disposing of only 518 tonnes of true unusable waste, which resulted in refurbishing 4,614 tonnes of materials into OEM quality components – a result we endeavour to continually improve upon.
At a local level, HCA branches are being fitted with solar power and rain water tanks where feasible, and energy efficient lighting and recycling implementations. Reducing not only cost to the customer, but waste to landfill and CO2 in the manufacturing processes.
ECORR is finalising their 2025 Sustainability strategy which includes goals that encompass Climate Active Certification, certifying products with leading sustainability schemes (Environmental Product Declaration and Infrastructure Sustainability Council of Australia) and a reduction in scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon neutral emissions.
The sustainability initiatives taken by both ECORR and HCA combined with community support contribute towards the United Nations sustainable Development Goals (SDG), together achieving positive outcomes for society and the environment through their day to day business operations.

QME 2026! 🧡
Across three action-packed days in Mackay, the Hitachi | LANDCROS stand was buzzing as customers, industry partners and families got up close with our Japanese mining and construction equipment, including the mighty EX1200-7.
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, climbed aboard our machines and caught up with the team. It was great connecting with everyone.
See you at the next one!
A new fleet ready for the Pilbara. 💪
We’re proud to welcome KHG Contracting to Hitachi following the delivery of four new machines to support their operations in Western Australia’s Pilbara region.
The new fleet includes 2 x Hitachi ZX350LC-7G excavators, 1 x ZX890LCH-7 excavator and 1 x EX1200-7 mining excavator, bringing Hitachi | LANDCROS performance, reliability and support to the KHG team.
Pictured with the new fleet are Sait Ucal, Plant & Equipment Manager at KHG Contracting, alongside Dale, Major Accounts Manager (HCA) and Jacob, Key Account Manager Mining (HCA).
Thank you to Sait and the entire @khg_contracting team for choosing Hitachi. We look forward to supporting the machines and the team as they get to work in the Pilbara.
Built for demanding conditions. Supported where you work.
There’s only one thing better than being an operator… doing it with a view like that. 🌊
Hitachi | LANDCROS gives the precision, control and reliability RONMAC Holdings team need on this waterfront project to keep the job moving.

When you`ve spent more than a decade in the industry, you know what good equipment feels like.
Working on stormwater infrastructure at Seaford Heights, Jesse from Tripodi Group puts the Hitachi 25-tonne zero swing excavator through its paces every day. From exceptional stability and impressive power to GPS integration and the added confidence of a zero-tail swing design, it`s built to perform where precision matters most.
Safer. More capable. Japanese reliability. Ready for the job.
Hear why Jesse trusts Hitachi | LANDCROS on site.
45,000 cubic metres of sand. Four basement levels. 10 machines. One serious excavation.
Faced with the challenge of removing 45,000 cubic metres of sand from a four-level basement, RONMAC brought together the right fleet for the job – including a purpose-bought long-reach attachment fitted to a 36-tonne Hitachi excavator to reach the bottom.
Working bucket-to-bucket, the team is progressively moving material from Basement 3 all the way to the surface, where it can be loaded out.
It’s a challenging job that demands the right equipment and the right support.
We’re proud to be working alongside RONMAC and even prouder to hear their team say they’re “looking forward to doing a lot more in the future” with Hitachi.
Two B45Es. One destination: getting to work. 💪
A pair of Bell B45E Articulated Dump Trucks are on the move north and ready to hit the circuit with Ezyquip Hire.
Built to tackle demanding conditions and keep productivity moving, these two are ready for what’s ahead.
A big thank you to the Ezyquip Hire team for your continued business and ongoing support.
Safe travels, B45Es!

A BIG start for Big Yellow. 🟠
It was great to catch up with the team from Big Yellow at Diggers & Dealers in Kalgoorlie as they prepare to take delivery of their new Hitachi EX1200-7BH.
And this is just the beginning.
The EX1200-7BH is the first of four Hitachi mining excavators Big Yellow will take delivery of this year, with two EX3600-7BHs and an EX2000-7BH still to come.
We’re proud to welcome Big Yellow as a new customer and look forward to supporting their growing fleet as these machines get to work.
Thanks to the Big Yellow team for choosing Hitachi. We’re looking forward to what’s ahead.
