| 23 Nauhria Group Nauhria Reinforcing is both a distributor and fabricator of reinforcing steel, and currently imports one of the lowest-embodied carbon reinforced steels in New Zealand. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Nauhria Reinforcing is both a distributor and fabricator of reinforcing steel, and currently imports one of the lowest-embodied carbon reinforced steels in New Zealand. “Our low- embodied carbon steel is up to 80% lower than the commonly used base line in New Zealand, which helps projects achieve a 6 Greenstar rating. We were proud to have supplied low- embodied carbon steel for New Zealand’s first 6 Green Star-rated industrial development, Goodman’s Tāwharau Lane.” Nauhria Group’s roots stem back to 1991, when Rakesh’s father Roshan founded Nauhria Reinforcing in Auckland. Fresh from AUT with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree, Rakesh joined the family business in 1999, complementing his father’s engineering skill set with his own passion for leadership and management. Nauhria Precast was founded in 2001, followed by the Monarc brand of architectural precast products, along with a number of strategic acquisitions enabling growth beyond Auckland, and the establishment of a property development company that predominantly undertakes medium-density residential developments. “I’m proud of what Nauhria Group has created, what we’re doing as a business, and where we’re going, and I suppose I have led that – very much so. Although I still believe it is a team effort, it does require a leader who is very passionate about the purpose of the organisation and what we’re trying to achieve. I also feel that entering the awards inspires me to keep thinking differently, because I get to see what others are doing and benchmark myself against them, and there were some amazing entrants.” 0800Ducting Ltd Supply of spiral wound ducting to the precast concrete industry 20 Villa St, Masterton | P: 0800 38 28 46 | E: office@0800ducting.co.nz 0800 Ducting LTD congratulates Nauhria Precast on 20 years in the precast industry.
