DUNCAN REYNOLDS
Research & Development
Duncan Reynolds, a steadfast presence since his father founded the company over 25 years ago, initially began as scaffolder, gradually accumulating expertise in sewer vent, vent cowl, and odour filter design, fabrication, and installation. With comprehensive understanding of Sydney Water and Council wastewater regulations, Duncan now spearheads the R&D facet of our operations. “My role ensures SVSR maintains a prominent stance in our industry, both domestically and globally. While manufacturing and construction continually introduce novel materials and methodologies, these developments may not be apparent from the field. My position was designed to step back, survey academic and international landscapes, and integrate ongoing research into SVSR’s forefront, aligning with our clients’ demands.”
Duncan understands that customer requirements and industry Best Practice are completely different across Australia, and even within each state. “There is no one-size-fits-all. This means we need to understand each site and design, and deliver different solutions for every site.”
His passion extends to bridging engineering, sustainability, and societal welfare. “Ultimately our goal is devising inventive solutions to wastewater challenges. Reduce the costs of managing corrosion and odour, while improving worker safety by diluting odours within confined spaces”.
Since 2017, SVSR has actively participated in various University student competitions. Duncan collaborates with students, working on challenging real-world problems with a multi-disciplinary team. He mentors aspiring talented students, and cultivates university relationships.
Duncan acknowledges the transformative evolution of SVSR and the industry at large, describing the current landscape as “unrecognisable” compared to the family business’s nascent stages.
