Kingston Reserve in Dingley, Victoria, was in dire need of a new barrier for their football ground. In the past, Kingston City Council had used treated pine posts, however with their rapid deterioration the council looked towards a solution that would last far longer and require little maintenance.

With the additional need for a product that could be easily drilled to insert pipes, the Replas bollards were the perfect option. Kingston Reserve can now look forward to a nice looking barrier around their football ground, with the added benefit of longevity.

Some years ago, Geelong City Council constructed the longest recycled-plastic boardwalk in Victoria. They have now decided to go a step further and purchase some Podium Signs that promote their initiative, and highlight the key statistics of their plastic collections.

Moira Shire Council is another Victorian council who have been considering the benefits of recycled plastic products. As a result, they have purchased three Beachcomber Benches.

Although a new product, our Beachcombers have had no trouble asserting themselves as a comfortable, environmentally friendly and sustainable seat.

Recently, Cardinia Shire Council in Victoria purchased new signage for their Aqueduct Trail, which runs through a forest. The largest considerations for the project were colour and sustainability, and Replas provided the solution. Blue was required as it is a corporate colour, and the longevity of recycled plastic made Replas signs the clear winner over all alternatives.

Over the last few years, many regional municipalities all over Australia have turned to our recycled plastic products in an effort to save considerable expense in maintenance. Increased efforts to reduce reliance on treated timbers is making our non toxic, low maintenance product more and more attractive. Tamworth City Council is taking advantage of these benefits, as demonstrated in their purchasing of Replas bollards and seating.

The City of Charles Sturt in South Australia are currently trialling our recycled plastic bollards along their beachfront walkways. Council staff are very pleased with the bollards, as they not only look fantastic but also display up to 12 warning signs using minimal space.

The durability of these bollards is particularly impressive, and we suspect we’ll be seeing a lot more of them along the beachfronts very soon!

One of the latest installations completed by the City of Cairns in Queensland is this park redevelopment. Replas bollards have been installed to mark out ‘pedestrian only’ areas, and recycled plastic profiles have also been used to maintain the neat appearance of the garden beds.

Bollards and wheel stops have also contributed to distinguishing parking bays, and preventing vehicles encroaching on the parklands.

The Cricket ground at Petersham, a suburb of Sydney, was the scene of Sir Donald Bradman’s original ‘First Class’ cricket century. So when the Marrickville Council decided to refurbish the benches on the ground, it was trusted that they would want a product that enhanced the historic significance of the area.

These images show that the green colour and traditional shape of the Replas benches blends perfectly into the surroundings, and make for an aesthetically pleasing, traditional look that local residents can enjoy for many years.

Warringah Council recently purchased 95 blue recycled plastic bollards, to be placed neat Collaroy and Fisherman’s beaches in NSW. These brand new bollards, featuring important informational signage are an interesting contrast to the old treated pine fences (seen in the background).

The council also took advantage of their recycling efforts, including lettering on the bollards advising that each is made from about 200 recycled milk containers.

The finished product looks fantastic and will last many times longer than alternative signage, establishing Warringah Council’s commitment to environmental sustainability.

Melbourne's Bayside City Council are about to install a large number of Trackmarker signs. These will form part of their pathway system and will blend into the environment beautifully.
