Queensland Premier Peter Beattie opened Capral Aluminium’s $160 million manufacturing facility at Bundamba.
The 75,000m² facility will process up to 50,000 tonnes of aluminium a year into a variety of products and provides aluminium extrusion, powder coating, anodising and warehouse facilities. The development consolidates the operations of six smaller plans and will create 200 new jobs.
The 17 hectare Bremer Park site includes the 61,807m² main production building as well as separate buildings for die assembly, amenities, hub building, office, effluent treatment, caustic tanks cover, switch room, bunded tanks, pump room and guard room.
Woodhead undertook design development and documentation for Watpac, the D&C contractor, and were subsequently engaged by Watpac to design and document the fit out of the administration building.
