14 | NZ Strong REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Health and safety focus NZ Strong tackles a wide variety of projects and allows it to target quality clients. T T from page 13 Lyndon says that health and safety has always been a major focus for NZ Strong and it was one of the first construction companies in the country to gain certification against the new worldwide health and safety standard, ISO 45001, and in 2018 it achieved triple ISO certification. He says that NZ Strong actively involve all of its staff at every level in all aspects of the planning and assessment of tasks, risk assessments and management of its health and safety processes. There is also a focus on continuously providing comprehensive training and encouraging up-skilling wherever possible. Sustainability has been another cornerstone of the business’s success over the past 20 years. Lyndon has previous Green Star experience with three others also employed on staff to meet client needs in this regard and sustainable practices are implemented in the day-to-day running of the business. “We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and continually improving our environmental performance is an integral part of our business strategy and operating methods. It is our priority to encourage our clients and suppliers to do the same. Not only is this sound commercial sense but it also ensures we deliver on our duty of care towards future generations. NZ Strong has held a long standing commitment to robust environmental practices having been ISO 14001 accredited since 2012 and is responsible for achieving good environmental practice and operating in a sustainable manner.” A current project includes a new hangar for Air New Zealand at Auckland Airport, a build that aligns with the client’s goals around sustainability. Lyndon says it will be the largest timber spanned hanger in the Southern Hemisphere once completed next year. NZ Strong is also working on the eleven-storey Grand Chancellor Hotel and has just finished a series of Metlifecare facilities. Lyndon says that looking into the future NZ Strong aims to continue to build on its goal of being the most trusted and respected builder for its clients. “We try to make sure our decisions, how we conduct ourselves and everything we do aligns with that vision. Setting the standards and raising the bar continually is what we do at NZ Strong.” Specialising in exterior plastering of residential and commercial buildings, new builds or remediation.
