1. Description of the
Technology.
Haul
was established by Mr Scott Kilmartin in
1997 with the sale of number-plate travel journals at local market
events in Hobart, Tasmania. Today haul
manufactures its
products in Reservoir Victoria, with products retailed nationally.
The
haul range of accessories caters for the tourist
market and younger age groups, being sold with an emphasis on
innovative design and their environmental performance
attributes. All
Haul products are manufactured from or
contain recycled materials sourced from a wide variety of commercial
waste and by-products otherwise destined for landfill.
These include old PVC advertising banners and recycled truck-tyre
inner tubes.
After a
comprehensive assessment undertaken by GECA the haul range of
accessories have been
awarded a Good Environmental Choice Licence.
