Industrial and heavy industry.

Production facilities, factory expansions and structures built to plant specification, including work carried out around live operations.

Industrial and heavy industry

Factories built around the process, and structures built for plant conditions.

A factory is built around a process, not the other way around. Floor loadings, wash down, cold rooms, extraction, power and the route product takes through the building all shape the structure, so we work off the client's process layout from the start.

Heavy industrial work is judged on two things: whether the structure takes the loads and the environment it sits in, and whether the contractor can build it without shutting the operation down. We build to plant specification and sequence around shutdowns, permits and live process areas.

The Pride Pak factory at 14 000 m² in Theta and the Lil Masters Dippers factory at 13 500 m² are the larger examples. The 80 m Germiston tunnel, driven for waste removal beneath a factory that never stopped producing, and a boiler house in Eswatini are the measure of what we take on when the site is constrained.

Scope we carry.

New factories

Production buildings designed and built around the process that goes inside them.

  • Process driven layouts
  • Heavy duty and loaded floor slabs
  • Wash down and hygienic finishes
  • Extraction, power and compressed air

Expansions and alterations

Adding to a working factory without stopping what is already running.

  • Building extensions and infills
  • Structural alterations and openings
  • Roof replacement and re sheeting
  • Phased work around production

Process and utility buildings

Boiler houses, workshops and plant structures built to the industrial standard.

  • Boiler houses and utility buildings
  • Workshops, stores and MCC rooms
  • Machine bases and plinths
  • Bunding and containment

Underground and tunnelling

Excavation and lining below existing structures where surface access is not an option.

  • Tunnelling beneath live buildings
  • Service tunnels and culverts
  • Waste removal routes
  • Access chambers and shafts

Typical work
  • New factories and production facilities
  • Factory expansions and alterations
  • Boiler houses and process buildings
  • Cold storage and insulated buildings
  • Heavy duty and loaded floor slabs
  • Tunnelling and underground waste removal
  • Roof replacement and re sheeting
  • Plant roads, hardstand and access
