CASE STUDIES
PRE-TAP CONNECTORS
This case study details our newly launched PreTap connectors, Amendment 1. Compliant to AS/NZS 2280, and patent pending.
​
A truly innovative solution to a complex problem. Daemco is the first company to comply with the Ductile Iron Pipe and Fitting standard AS/NZS2280 Amendment 1. and the first to have it published in a WSAA Product Appraisal.
Consultation with multiple stakeholders, WSAA, IAPMO and many Water Authorities across Australia for industry feedback so that we could incorporate it into our design to ensure a compliant, robust, user friendly and easy to install product.
We pride ourselves as providing the best in class service to our customers and moving forward we will seek to develop more innovative products and services to the industry.
This case study outlines Daemco Australia's initiative to incorporate circular economy principles into the production of valve and hydrant covers.
Manufactured from glass-fibre reinforced polyester (SMC), the company explored recycling these end-of-life products into granulated material for use in concrete.
Partnering with M. Tucker & Sons, they trialled concrete mixes using recycled SMC aggregate, successfully achieving strength targets.
This collaboration supports waste reduction and resource conservation, aligning with Daemco’s ISO14001 certification. The recycled material is now being integrated into sustainable concrete products such as thrust blocks and manholes, marking a significant step in closing the loop for this product category
THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY
SKYLIGHTS CASE STUDY
This case study highlights Daemco Australia’s initiative to improve energy efficiency and staff wellbeing through the installation of over 600 linear metres of high-clarity polycarbonate skylights across its 3,000+ sqm Tullamarine warehouse
.
Replacing aged skylights, the project was completed in just four weeks and has already reduced lighting energy consumption by 30%, with projections of up to 60% savings in warmer months
.
The initiative eliminates the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours, contributing to significant carbon footprint reduction while supporting Daemco’s ISO14001 Environmental Management System
.
Beyond environmental benefits, natural light has improved worker comfort, mood, and alertness, underscoring the dual value of sustainability and people-focused design
