Factory of the Future

Glenroy Community Hub, the community's first passive house certified building, utilising sustainability and high quality design envisioned by DesignInc. The building reflects a nature inspired aesthetic, integrating greenery, a colour palette that reflects earth's characteristics and Glulam beams, showcasing a geometric design displayed as exterior and interior structures.

 

Specialised Timber Fabrication supplied over 50 Glulam beams, all with sanding and painting done in our factory. Each beam CNC'd achieving a truly high standard finish, in collaboration with TTW Engineers who provided the structural design. This ensured the buildings stability, accommodating its complex geometry.
