BST tankfarm: industrial transformation at Wynyard wharf
Witness the large-scale industrial demolition project that paved the way for Auckland's beloved Wynyard Wharf redevelopment. Yakka expertly cleared the path, combining precision, safety, and a deep respect for history.

Reclaiming the waterfront: a vision for Wynyard wharf
The BST Tankfarm project marked a pivotal moment in the revitalisation of Wynyard Wharf. Our mission was clear: transform an industrial landscape into a vibrant recreational space for Auckland residents. Yakka proudly took on the challenge of removing 28 massive silos from the BST Tankfarm. This comprehensive task involved the careful removal and disposal of insulation, exterior linings, and concrete plinths. Crucially, we also ensured the preservation of four key silos, serving as a powerful nod to the wharf's rich industrial past, connecting its history with its future.

Precision and safety: yakka's specialised approach

Yakka deployed a comprehensive arsenal of tools and techniques, including powerful cranes, versatile knuckle booms, precise thermal lances, and efficient gas cutting methods. Our highly skilled team meticulously executed each step, ensuring the safe and effective dismantling of these large structures. A testament to our rigorous safety protocols and operational excellence, the entire removal process was completed with an impeccable record of zero incidents.
