Its always great to see cranes in the skyline!

Our project on Anglesea St, Hamilton is looking good with the steel going up at the moment.

We're excited to be working with LIC on the development of their new laboratory facility at Newstead.
Designed to support advanced research, testing, and innovation, the new purpose-built laboratory will help future-proof LIC's operations and continue supporting New Zealand's dairy sector.
It's great to be involved in a project that invests in science, technology, and the future of our primary industries.

Fantastic to see the new Waihi ambulance station is operational!

The new molecular lab at Waikato Hospital was a recent Gold Winner at the Commercial Project Awards.

The lab was a significant upgrade to colocate the Molecular Biology dept to join the main lab floor.

The molecular lab was pivotal as part of the covid outbreak where testing peaked at 4000 tests per day.

It was designed to PC2 lab compliance and air lobbies were introduced at lab entrance points for compliance. A new Point of Care testing laboratory where staff facilitate the analysis of clinical specimens outside the laboratory, near, or at the site of patient care.
