Boral recently welcomed members of the local community to an open day at Orange Grove Quarry in Western Australia, creating an opportunity to share how the site operates and the role it plays in supporting the region.

The event brought together employees, their families and local residents for a day focused on openness, education and connection. Visitors were able to take guided tours of the quarry, explore interactive displays and learn more about how safety, sustainability and environmental management are embedded into daily operations.

The open day was supported by volunteers from across Boral’s Western Australia Concrete and Quarries business, who worked together to ensure the event ran smoothly and provided a welcoming experience for visitors.

Boral was pleased to welcome the Mayor of the City of Gosnells, Terresa Lynes, along with other Council representatives, who took part in the site tour and discussions about quarry operations and community engagement.

Keith Swift, Orange Grove Quarry Manager, said open days play an important role in building understanding and trust.

“Open days give us a chance to show the community what we do and why it matters. It’s about transparency, education and building trust. When people see the care we take with safety and the environment, it changes their perception of Boral and builds stronger relationships.”

Andre Gobett, General Manager Concrete and Quarries WA, said the event was also a chance to share the team’s work with family and community members.

“The best part of the day was sharing our quarry and our team with my family. It’s not often our families get to see what we do up close. I’m very proud of the WA Concrete and Quarries team for pulling this event together.”

The Orange Grove Quarry open day reflects Boral’s ongoing commitment to engaging with the communities in which it operates and creating opportunities for open conversation about its people, products and practices.
