Location: Arundel, Queensland
Business: Havendeen Roofing
Task: When Havendeen Roofing, a leader in commercial roofing in Queensland, needed to build their new office/warehouse, they naturally turned to their long-time suppliers CSR Bradford for products and technical support.
Moving from a leased building to their own architect-designed premises, the experienced team at Havendeen knew what they needed and turned to Bradford Insulation and Bradford ventilation to provide tailored solutions for the two units, each featuring a separate office and warehouse. One unit is used by Havendeen as their offices and warehouse for products and equipment, with the other unit leased out to Deluxe Foods, specialty food wholesalers.
Of particular concern was the acoustics between the two units and between the offices and the warehouses, so CSR Bradford helped Trevor J Allen Architects specify products to address this. Thermal performance in the hot Queensland summers was another key concern, and the combination of industry leading insulation and ventilation came to the rescue here.

Result: Completed in 2015, the 1500m2 building has had a thorough testing and is performing above expectations. "Our energy bills are down and the acoustics are really good. It's much better than we thought it was going to be, and our tenant is very happy too.
The thermal performance is so good that on a lot of days we don't even need to run the air-conditioning," said Havendeen's Rob McKinnon.
