The brief

What the client needed

Handed over March 2023

A distributor needed space fast and power it could rely on. The site was an old factory yard with buried foundations and contaminated ground.

Our approach

How we built it

Clearing the past

Old foundations broken out and recycled as fill, and contaminated soil removed under supervision.

Steel and concrete together

Steel portal frames fabricated off site while floor slabs were laser screeded in 2,000 sqm bays.

Solar roofs

2.4 megawatts of solar panels with battery storage cut the client's diesel bill sharply.

Phased handover

The first 16,000 sqm was handed over in month 9 so the client could start moving stock.
