| 51 Airzone Airzone has been involved with some impressive and diverse projects including the Hundertwasser Art Centre and Kensington Hospital. CONTRACTING construction companies in Northland with some very impressive and diverse projects.” Reflecting on the challenges that currently face the industry Terry says one of the biggest challenges currently faced by the industry is a skills shortage. “We pride ourselves on our apprenticeship program and currently have fourteen locally based apprentices at various levels progressing through the business and believe that some of our best employees are grown from within. As a business we are putting a lot of focus on bringing through quality in-house trained HVAC specialists — qualified refrigeration engineers.” Not all apprentices come straight from school and Airzone has a number of adult apprentices, each bringing different life skills to the business. “In looking for apprentices we look for people who have the passion and the appetite to do good quality work and to grow. So, it’s really an enthusiasm for learning the trade with quality at the forefront and some real energy to get the work done correctly.” Reflecting on Airzone’s success over the last forty-two years Terry says that it is without doubt its people, the uncompromising focus on work quality, workmanship and early collaboration with its customers. “We are passionate about what we do. We are always looking for new ways to innovate and improve and we always pass that through to our customers. All mechanical and electrical requirements are managed in-house by our own qualified specialised team, with an emphasis on designing systems that are both energy efficient and suit the customer’s specific environment.” MICO WHANGĀREI 17 COMMERCE ST, WHANGĀREI 0110 | 09 438 7239 CREATE YOUR DREAM BATHROOM AT MICO Proud supporters of AIRZONE
