A commitment to sustainability
“We’ve selected sustainable, easy living, low maintenance interior living options to enhance form, function and future flexibility at Fastners Way”

EBV has been designed and built with environmental sustainability at the fore.
All addresses have a 7.5-star average NatHERS rating, and many will also achieve operational carbon neutral building status. We’re achieving this through a commitment to offsets and renewable energy sources along with a host of industry leading Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) initiatives such as rooftop solar panels, passive building design, water efficient fixtures and fittings, motion and daylight sensors and double-glazed windows.

This means that life at much of EBV will have no net negative impact on the environment.
There will be more than 2300sqm of villager-only communal and green spaces at EBV. These include activated rooftops, podium gardens, foyers, an open-air pedestrian walkway and a secluded ground floor garden. Villagers will be able to access the rooftops and other communal green spaces at every address.

Innovative waste collection and waste minimisation for all residents
Providing ample waste streams for optimum recycling and ultimately minimum waste ending up in landfill, is a huge objective at EBV. In collaboration with Reground, EBV residents and retailers are working towards reducing their carbon foot print every day!
Partnership with Reground
Reground is a social enterprise helping create a circular economy through innovative waste collection and waste minimisation projects. To date we have recycled 6,980kgs of soft plastic and prevented 5,736kg of harmful greenhouse gases being released into the community with their support.
