To redevelop a fire-ravaged coolstore and CA store in time for the impending fruit season while ensuring improved efficiency and incorporating state-of-the-art Controlled Atmosphere and refrigeration equipment.
Post Harvest building design to plan for future growth in the production capacity of the operation.
- 2000sq m of open plan carton store with PIR wall and roof cladding on concrete panels.
- 1500sq m of CA store with 9m high concrete walls and PIR ceiling.
- Shrinkage compensated concrete for no joints in the CA room floors.
- PIR ceiling in the CA stores.
- 450sq m mezzanine floors.
LHTDesign worked closely with the client and the construction company to design and then carry out staged documentation and consent processes necessary to achieve the tight timelines and budgets. All the parameters required by the client were included in the documentation and achieved during construction.
The new facility was opened on the first anniversary of the fire that demolished the old store, and in time for the first fruit of the season.
