DEMEX was engaged as principal contractor to dismantle and relocate a waste processing plant located in an industrial precinct in the outer suburbs of Perth. The plant was housed in a large 2,500m² industrial shed, which was to remain in situ once all plant items were removed. The site remained operational during the dismantling before the plant was transported approximately 4,300 kilometres by road across country to Southeast Queensland. The plant was reconstructed in the new location by DEMEX under an amended design.
Due to the logistics and distance involved in relocation of the plant from WA to Queensland, the team worked methodically to calculate the optimal distribution and placement of items on transport vehicles and in the two 40 foot shipping containers used for all ancillary items. All items were transported by road on escorted wide loads and road trains.
The team delivered phase one of the project a week ahead of schedule, successfully dismantling and recycling 100 percent of plant items.
