| 15 Kim Newth Quality & efficiency drive commercial build in Rangiora New commercial development from Cohesive Construction, Kingsford Smith Drive in Rangiora - two warehouses with associated office spaces. Cohesive Construction Canterbury: Kingsford Smith Drive REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT A new commercial development on Kingsford Smith Drive in Rangiora is the latest example of how Cohesive Construction continues to deliver high-quality, custom-built industrial and commercial facilities across the South Island. This project, which kicked off onsite in early February, includes two warehouses with associated office spaces. A precast panel wall divides the two spaces, providing a clear separation between two tenancies. Built using a standard industrial design, the project features structural steel framing, precast panel construction, metal cladding for the warehouse, and Ultra Cladding on the office facades. Despite being in the early stages of construction, the build is already showcasing the strengths of Christchurch-based design and construction firm Cohesive Construction. Precast panels and structural steel have now been installed, and the company’s site team is actively driving the programme to ensure practical completion is met on time and on budget, without compromising quality. Marketing manager Ayesha Harnett says the Kingsford Smith Drive development is a good example of Cohesive’s integrated approach to commercial construction, and highlights how the team’s commitment to consistency and quality underpins every project, regardless of size. “One of the ways we deliver consistent results is through standardised systems,” she says. “Our processes, including post-handover procedures, are the same whether we’re working on a $1 million project or a $10 million one. That’s what ensures our clients get a high-quality product every time.” In keeping with their client-centric approach, communications on this particular project have been kept streamlined and informal, with monthly Project Control Group (PCG) reports keeping the owners up to date. Cost-efficiency is another key focus on this build. Cohesive is self-performing a large portion of the work, which allows greater control over timelines and budgets and is something the company frequently leverages to deliver better value to its clients. Cohesive Construction is a nationwide construction company with seven branches operating across the South Island and a head office in Christchurch. The family-owned and operated company now delivers more than 200 new builds every year. From warehouses to food processing facilities, aircraft hangars and agribusiness structures, the company’s project portfolio is as diverse as its clients’ needs. A trusted supplier of Wide Span Sheds in the South Island, Cohesive brings unrivalled expertise in constructing cold-rolled steel buildings, tailored to New Zealand’s unique environmental and ground conditions. “Our point of difference is the personal and consistent service we offer,” Ayesha says. “From concept to completion, our clients work with the same team the whole way through. We’re proud to say you’ll see the same faces at every stage of your project.” With in-house experts in design, project management, and quantity surveying, Cohesive Construction offers a one-stopshop approach that ensures every project runs smoothly from start to finish. As the Kingsford Smith Drive development moves ahead, it’s another strong example of the company’s ability to bring together quality, efficiency, and client collaboration in every build.
