Precision in power: Industrial demolition at Affco

Discover how Yakka successfully tackled complex industrial demolition projects for Affco at Moerewa and Wairoa, expertly removing redundant structures while maintaining operational continuity.

Demolishing the past at Affco Moerewa

Yakka was initially engaged by Affco for the critical task of demolishing redundant coal furnaces, towering chimneys, and engine rooms at their Moerewa facility. This intricate project involved extensive A and B class asbestos removal, requiring specialised methodologies and strict safety protocols. Our team expertly utilised cranes and shear-mounted excavators to ensure the safe and efficient deconstruction of these large industrial structures.

Expanding our expertise: Wairoa's intricate challenge

Following the successful completion of the Moerewa contract, Affco entrusted Yakka with identical works at their Wairoa site. Both projects presented a unique challenge: the structures were in close proximity to other fully operational buildings and newly installed furnaces. Careful demolition was paramount to ensure zero disruption to Affco's processing facilities, a testament to Yakka's meticulous planning and execution capabilities.
