Fosters Group

The Fosters Distribution Warehouse, located in the DB RReef Industrial Estate off Boundary Road in Laverton North, is an impressive 52,808m2 facility inclusive of an Administration Office, Dispatch Office and Gatehouse.  Page Steel Fabrications provided a total of 1110 tonne of steel for this project, all of which was fabricated in house just up the road from site in our new purpose built facility in Derrimut.

All processes required to produce the steel for the project, from cutting of plate and shot blasting of steel to the welding and prime painting of the final steel, were undertaken within our premises utilising our modern equipment. 

Page Steel Fabrications commenced the project on time and was able to maintain a constant flow of steel to site utilising our own transport.  The early planning and staging of the project in consultation with our Client, the Engineer and the Erectors assisted us in completing the project ahead of schedule to the great benefit of our client.

The imposing 1200WB columns, which protrude through the warehouse roof and were required to support the loading dock canopy for the 15 bays of the warehouse, were the only component of painted steel to be outsourced by Page Steel for protective treatment. 
Our barcoding and scanning technology allowed us to easily keep track of these columns and all steel components during all steps in the fabrication, painting and delivery process.

The 1100 tonne of steel produced for this project was handled with ease within our workshop, which provides ample overhead cranage and smart lifting systems.

The Fosters Group Warehouse was a stimulating and rewarding project for us to be involved in.  It proved that Page Steel Fabrications new purpose built facility was easily able to cater for high tonnage projects.
