Innovating Safety and Sustainability: The Events Centre, Caloundra leads the Way

In today’s dynamic hospitality landscape, ensuring safety and sustainability within event venues is paramount.

The Events Centre, Caloundra, a prominent hub for gatherings and conferences, recognised this imperative and embarked on a transformative journey to enhance its operations.

After using the system in previous roles at Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centres, when Julian Gibbs joined the team, he knew eWater was something he needed to introduce.

Addressing the Challenge

One of the primary challenges faced by The Events Centre, Caloundra was the need to implement meaningful safety and sustainability initiatives, particularly within its kitchen facilities and food safety protocols. Traditional chemical consumables posed risks to both health and the environment, necessitating a more effective and eco-friendly solution.

“The system produces highly effective solutions that are safe to use whilst providing a sustainable and cost-effective outcome. eWater is now the primary cleaning and sanitising solution for our team”

Julian Gibbs, Conference and Events Manager

The Solution: eWater Standalone System
The Events Centre, Caloundra opted for the installation of an eWater Standalone System. This revolutionary technology replaced harsh chemical consumables with a safer, more sustainable alternative. The eWater system seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructure, becoming an integral component of the venue’s food safety program.
Versatility and Impact

The versatility of eWater proved instrumental across various facets of operations at The Events Centre, Caloundra. From food contact wash and sanitising to kitchen and front-of-house cleaning, the system has demonstrated its efficacy in maintaining impeccable hygiene standards.

Reaping the Benefits

The adoption of the eWater Standalone System yielded numerous benefits for The Events Centre, Caloundra. Notably, it led to a reduction in chemical purchases, resulting in significant time and cost savings. Moreover, the transition from single-use plastic containers to reusable alternatives contributed to a decrease in plastic waste, aligning with the venue’s sustainability goals. Importantly, the switch to eWater enhanced safety for the team, as it is non-toxic and free from synthetic ingredients.
