Working with industry

Research outcomes need to further our understanding and contribute to the task of reducing contamination in our landscapes and the impact it has on our communities.

To achieve this goal CRC CARE works with industry, government and communities to ensure its research outcomes are utilised.

Australian Remediation Industry Cluster
The Australian Remediation Industry Cluster (ARIC) facilitates the development of the environmental remediation industry in Australia.

Commercialisation
Producing leading edge technology is a key goal of CRC CARE. Having a technological solution to a problem does not necessarily mean that people can or will use it. Often technologies have to be developed into new products and services before they can be adopted.

The commercialisation of technology attracts people to invest in the post-research phase which is critical to the successful adoption of many new technologies.

Not all technologies produced by CRC CARE will be commercialised. Many technologies will be promoted to the relevant audience to facilitate rapid adoption or further development. 

Whichever path the technology goes down to reach the marketplace there will be considerable flow on benefits for the broader community through reduced contamination in the environment.
