ADCO was named Builder of Choice for Robert Bosch’s new Australasian Head office in Clayton, in Melbourne’s South.
The $40 million commercial development saw construction of a 11,800m² multi-functional building incorporating offices, workshops, test facilities, training rooms, a cafeteria, an auditorium and employee amenities over four levels.
The building achieved an extremely high air permeability rating of 2.3m3/hr.m², which falls just short of the Air Tightness Testing & Measurement Association’s (ATTMA) world best practice for office buildings score of 2.0. This result was achieved by using air barrier materials and excellent attention to detail by the project team.
