Industrial Warehouse Construction Expands Rolleston Facility: Cosio Industries

In 2013, Joe Cosio contracted Corcon to design and build a sizable industrial warehouse distribution centre for Cosio Industries, an agricultural, horticultural and geotextile product supplier. The plan was to extend the Rolleston industrial steel building as the enterprise grew.

Fast forward to 2020, and Cosio's tailored commercial buildings expansion project was a natural progression of the client's foresight, coupled with an ongoing relationship with Cosio Industries.

Our team guided the client through the construction consultancy process to identify their new requirements, including expanded devanning and loading capabilities. The tailored commercial buildings and facilities were to comply with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) standards.

Tailored Commercial Buildings: A Unique Solution

While planning the Cosio Industries expansion, the team realised that some aspects of the construction work could cause disruptions in the daily operations of the facilities.

The primary obstacle was the client's plan to replace the outdated hardstand. Demolishing the existing concrete slab would reduce functional space and cause operational challenges for Cosio Industries.

After brainstorming, the strategic team realised that the solution was straightforward. We would first construct the proposed industrial warehouse, immediately providing Cosio Industries with more usable space. Afterwards, civil works contractors could upgrade the hardstand without disrupting day-to-day business operations.

Seamless Collaboration Between Cosio Industries

We conducted routine meetings with Cosio's on-site manager during the industrial warehouse construction process. These frequent evaluations and reports fully assured stakeholders that business activities continued as usual, demonstrating that "We are with you every step of the way."

After receiving the Code of Compliance and completing the final handover, Cosio Industries wasted no time moving into its new space. This warehouse extension was a resounding success, highlighting the importance of staying connected throughout the project lifecycle and fostering solid Cantabrian partnerships.
