From its early days as a haulage contractor back in 1966, Benedict has grown into one of New South Wales’ largest producers and resellers of quarried, recycled and landscape products whilst fast becoming the industry leaders in recycling and resource recovery. What hasn’t changed is how it does business. The same commitment to reliable service, high quality products and exceptional standards. That’s what keeps Benedict's wheels in motion.
As the team celebrates their Diamond Jubilee, they are also stepping into a new chapter. Following the recent acquisition of parts of Benedict Recycling Pty Ltd by Igneo Infrastructure Partners (IWS), the rest of its group – Benedict Sand & Gravel, Benedict Industries, Benedict Recycling Newcastle and Bowral Waste Centre – remains proudly family owned.
A LEGACY BUILT ON SCALE, RELIABILITY AND INNOVATION
Over the past six decades, Benedict has built one of the most extensive resource networks in NSW. With quarries at Appin, Cowra, Menangle, Mittagong and Sandy Point, and more than 50 million tonnes in reserves, it supplies the sands, soils, aggregates and recycled materials that keep projects moving.
The Newcastle Recycling facility, operating since 2016, along with the Bowral Waste Centre, strengthens its footprint across the state handling large-scale recycling for construction, demolition and industrial waste streams. Newcastle is currently achieving a resource recovery rate of 89% and Bowral Waste Centre is diverting 75% of its waste from landfill. Whether it’s major infrastructure or local council works, we’ve built our reputation on reliability, quality, innovation and technical expertise.
“Sixty years in, and we’re still focused on doing the job properly delivering quality materials, staying compliant and backing our customers every step of the way,“ says Dana Dupere, Director of Benedict. “We’ve got the experience behind us and the capability in front of us, and we’re here for the long haul.”
INTEGRATED SERVICE SOLUTIONS
In a changing market, Benedict is sharpening its focus on what it does best: its fully integrated service model. Benedict produces its own products, manage quality and compliance and delivers straight to site. It means fewer moving parts for customers and more confidence that the job will be done right. Theteam works closely with clients to make sure they’re getting the right material for the job, and that it gets there when they need it. Customers benefit from:
