Pro-Structure has concentrated on commercial work as its core business.

www.pro-structure.co.nz The company builds large projects, including industrial buildings, warehouses, factories and manufacturing environments, processing centres and bulk storage and warehousing. A significant project was the national distribution centre for Heinz Watties. The central warehouse is about 20,000 sqm, with minimal legs for uninterrupted space, and required Pro-Structure to design and build special trusses to span and support the roof. The floor had to be reinforced to support the weight of high-stacked pallets, while being durable enough to cope with 24/7 forklift and truck movements, including B trains. A series of additions took the total structure to 30,000 sqm and included purpose-built offices and an extensive fire control system. Until recently, Heinz Wattie’s national distribution centre was the largest facility of its kind in the southern hemisphere.

Focus on commercial work Fyfe says Pro-Structure has always concentrated on commercial work as its core business. Commercial services include geotechnical reports, design and build, construction management, office buildings, retail environments and showrooms, workshops and factories, large warehousing and customised environments for specific business requirements. One of Pro-Structure’s strengths is its ability to bring a flexible approach to commercial and civil construction. This means planning for both design and construction can proceed almost simultaneously. The company has delivered new and complex commercial structures and relocated and altered existing buildings to meet the requirements of a new business entity. Staff appreciate that timelines are critical to retail
