The project consisted of three major warehouses (DHL, Bridgestone & MOVE Logistics) and two main access roads comprising of approximately 25,000m2 of warehouse and office space.

Bridgestone is the anchor tenant in a multi-unit building, a 5,275m² development that fronts onto Halswell Junction Road and serves as a new entranceway to the Glassworks Industry Park. Bridgestone has taken a 12-year lease over the 1,125m² front unit as a sales and servicing facility. The building is an 8m high steel portal frame structure with spans up to 23m, suitable for sub-division and merging of space.

Move Logistics, a contract warehousing specialist with operations in Auckland and Christchurch, moved into a new 5,800m² purpose-built facility consisting of a 12m high portal frame structure, with two 32m span steel internal frames.

The DHL new warehouse provided 6,871m² of office and warehouse space together with an extensive canopied yard.  The building has a 9m high steel frame, with spans of up to 38m internally. Spine beams were used to ensure very few internal columns.

The project commenced with only 70% design complete. Watts & Hughes worked closely with the design team to ensure that the budget and quality was not compromised.
