Holiday Updates
The holidays are fast approaching so we wanted to let you know some important dates for the festive season. Our last day of the year will be Friday December 20 and we’ll be back ready to kick-off the new year on Monday January 6.
AUSPAN’s All-New Voortman Beam Line
Last week we posted a video about a new piece of technology that we recently installed in our Gnowangerup manufacturing plant. This new machinery is a Voortman Beam Line beam processing machine and is another example of AUSPAN’s commitment to maintaining our position as the leading agricultural shed builder in WA. In this short video, AUSPAN Director and Facility Manager of our Gnowangerup plant Caleb Richardson takes us through the benefits that this high-spec machine provides, not only to the AUSAPN team, but more importantly, to our valued clients as well.
Case Study: Shearing Shed for WA Hinkley & Co.
A few months ago, we filmed a case study showcasing a 32m x 15m x 4.5m shearing shed recently completed for Kane Hinkley in Jackitup, near AUSPAN’s headquarters in Gnowangerup. This shed features wall shutters and roof ventilation, plastic grating, a covered lean-to for dry storage, full lighting, and wide access doors. We’ve recently returned to see it in action, and in this brief video, Ben MacFarlane from Frankland River Shearing Services gives us a tour, highlighting how ‘sheds like this make a tough job much easier.
32 x 21 x 9.75m Grain Fodder Shed in Dalyup
And now it’s time to take a look at the final selection of completed sheds for 2004, and first we’re heading just to the west of Esperance and this 32x21x9.75m grain fodder shed for Wes Graham. This shed features 4 x 8m bays and a 32x15m lean-to for increased storage.
32 x 18 x 6.65m Machinery Shed in Goomaling
From Dalyup we have a six and a half hour drive north west to Goomaling and this 32x18x6.65m machinery shed with a 16m girder truss for clearspan opening for Damiel Dempster.
40 x 15 x 5m Storage Facility in Mumberkine
And just a few minutes down the road from Daniel’s shed and we come to this 40x15x5m storage facility with 5x8m bays for Andy Nielsen in Mumberkine.
And last, but most important of all, the entire AUSPAN team would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family all the very best for a safe and happy holiday season. We hope you’ve had a fantastic 2024 and we can’t wait to catch up with you again next year.
