WHO WE ARE

We are a team of dedicated professionals who are driven to create world-class solutions. Our unique blend of skills under one roof gives us the quantum of difference that sets us apart from other companies.

Designing buildings for the food industry is second nature to us.
We are industry leaders in designing structures for the Food Industry including Hygiene Facilities and Processing Plants for export dairy, meat and other food production industries in New Zealand and overseas. We have designed processing facilities for multiple clients in the dairy, meat, fish and other food related industries including Fonterra, Silver Fern Farms, Open Country Dairy, ANZCO, AFFCO, Delegat Winery and many others. In these industries, attention to detail and time is critical. We understand this and have a proven record of delivering both.
