Project Background
The $12.3 million Grenfell Water Treatment Plant is a state-of-the-art facility that will replace an ageing facility next door.
Located 370km west of Sydney, the new facility will modernise Grenfell’s sewerage treatment infrastructure with new and efficient technology to recycle waste water, and replace the current plant which has served the local community for over 80 years.
Partnering with Sarbico Engineering – a Cowra-based company specialising in precast concrete and steel fabrication – Moddex was commissioned to supply over 280 metres of Tuffrail® Industrial Handrails throughout the Grenfell Water Treatment Plant.
Major benefits for our project partner
With our proven track record across large-scale industrial projects, the Moddex in-house team worked swiftly to manufacture the Tuffrail® Industrial Handrails for the water treatment plant.
The Tuffrail® delivers AS 1657.2018 and NZS 1657.1992 compliant protection for workers across mezzanines, stairs, service platforms, walkways and fall edges.
Lightweight, incredibly robust and corrosion resistant, the pre-fabricated Tuffrail® made the entire installation process easy for the Sarbico installers.
“Choosing the Tuffrail pre-assembled handrail helped free up the Sarbico fabricators who were working on delivering structural elements of the treatment plant,” said Jason Hawkins, the Projects Consultant.
Your first choice in barrier safety
Not only are Moddex’s barrier systems simple to install, but every day across Australia and New Zealand industrial workers rely on them to stay safe while doing their job.
At facilities with elevated platforms and walkways, like the Grenfell Water Treatment Plant, our handrail systems dramatically minimise risk and give staff complete confidence regardless of the height they’re working at.
