World Ocean Day

MIRRAT staff and customers including representatives from Port of Melbourne recently spent several hours cleaning up the waterways boarding our facility as part of World Ocean Day. The team removed approximately 250 kgs of plastic and rubbish which had built up in the area over several years.

General Manager Nathan Ullrich commented “MIRRAT has a heavy focus on sustainability and minimising our impact on the local environment. Events such as this align with our company values and provide an opportunity to share our ethos with customers and stakeholders”.About World Oceans Day: Coordinated and promoted internationally by The Ocean Project since 2002, World Oceans Day is an annual celebration on June 8 as well as a call for ocean conservation action throughout the year. Starting in 2009, World Oceans Day has also been officially recognized by the United Nations.
