Trentham Medical Store

By David on July 1st, 2009

We have completed a nice tidy project in the Trentham Army Camp at the Medical store.

This project was on short notice with a very tight schedule and high levels of containment required. We were able to mobilise quickly and meet the demands of the program to the satisfaction of all involved.

Storage King

By David on March 1st, 2009

We have successfully completed the first stage of the Storage King facility in Thorndon.

This prominent but very old site posed many challenges for our application team, some very old steel and coatings to be removed, after hours work and tight deadlines.

Not only did we meet these tasks head on, we managed to save our client money with a few simple design revisions, good communication and co-operation.

Serious Industry Report

By David on September 25th, 2008

The Fire Protection Association of New Zealand has recently concluded a survey of various building in New Zealand. The report shows that there are serious deficits in the industry, and a major shake up will need to take place in the immediate future. This report is now with the Department of Building and Housing (DBH) for review. A link to the article and a news related item can be found below.

Continental Fire has long held a similar view, and has formulated its operations and QA process to drive the industry model into the future.  

We are very excited that the way is being paved for safer buildings in New Zealand.
