DEVELOPMENT “Our clients first choice” CONTACT OBELISK INDUSTRIAL, YOUR CHOICE FOR PROFESSIONAL STEELWORK SPECIALISTS info@obelisk.kiwi 09 579 7733 94b Henderson Valley Road, Henderson Behind the success of every thriving business are the people that make that success happen, day-in and day-out — something that structural steel fabrication and erection specialist Obelisk Industrial holds dear to its heart. Turning ive years old in March 2023, Obelisk Industrial quickly evolved from a contracting structural steel erection company to include the steel fabrication for the projects it completes throughout the wider Auckland region. “I could not have achieved what we’ve done without the amazing team around me, or without the support of our valued clients,” says Steve Culham, Obelisk Industrial’s founding Managing Director. “We’ve always had quite a large team, but moving into the fabrication sector enabled us to diversify our skill sets across our organisation. We have around thirty- ive sta with skills ranging from riggers, welders, crane operators, dogmen, steel detailers, estimators, quantity surveyors and human resources. We also have a couple of apprentices. It’s all about giving people opportunities to thrive on what they do.” Core values of ‘‘Keep it 100%’, ‘Solutions Focused’ and ‘Walk the Walk’, have been the anchoring points that guide Obelisk’s decision making, including the recruitment of new teammembers. Obelisk Industrial – walking the walk “Those values are all about the way our team treats each other, and our promise to give our best to our people” explains Steve. “And it underpins the way we operate with our clients. I always say to the guys, if you’re faced with a decision, just think of the values and if you can tie your decision making back to those values then you will never have a problem, because I’m going to support you 100%.” Operating from Henderson Valley, West Auckland, Obelisk’s niche is structural steel supply for high density residential and industrial projects, typically involving hundreds and sometimes thousands of tonnes of structural steel. “We always tell our clients that we compete on value irst, then cost. When we join a project, we join as part of a team with the common goal of project deliverables. Our point of di erence is that we don’t just fabricate and erect the steel. We get right down to the details at the front-end of the project, and o er our services as specialists to make the project both more e icient and economical for the client in the long run. We bring value to every stage of the project from initial technical queries with shop drawings right through to e icient on-site construction methodologies. We’ve worked with Du Val Group for the last four years and they fall right within our niche residential work.”
