Trillium Award
Program
by Lara Henry
If you drive by Miller Paving Limited’s plant on Tapscott Road in Scarborough,
you might notice the new Trillium Award decal prominently displayed on one of
its silos. It’s been a busy year for the Trillium Award program as the program
kicks into high gear.
“We’re targeting 2021 to have every member on board and
Trillium awarded. That’s less than two years away, so we
need our members to make it happen,” says Mike Deckert,
Vice President of FLO Components and chair of the Plant
and Paving Committee which administers the award.
Coco Paving Inc. was a Trillium Award winner for three of its
plants this year. “We believe it’s a really important award for
our industry. It increases the asphalt industry’s credibility and
reputation, and shows that we care about our community and
want to do more to be good neighbours,” says Taylor Lefebre,
Asphalt Quality & Production Manager for Coco Paving Inc.
