Rapid response for fire devastated business

Following a devastating fire that destroyed a large portion of the existing facility, MPN were engaged to report on the fire damage and then design a new chiller and boning room for a pig abattoir in Kingaroy.

Recognising the need to return the business to full functionality as soon as possible, MPN worked closely with Watpac and the project team to deliver a creative solution that was structurally efficient and reduced construction time.

A total of five project elements were designed and delivered as part of the overall rebuild project:

• New chillers
• New boning room
• New freezer building
• New central energy plant room
• External hardstand and stormwater modifications
