Boral Cement is a leading supplier of cement, lime and fly ash in Australia and have milling facilities in various locations. SBS commenced the scaffolding contract for maintenance and shutdowns in 2002, on 3 of these locations when previously owned by Blue Cement. The working conditions are considered as extreme yet we are highly regarded by Boral for our broad technical and skilled abilities in all areas of scaffolding and rigging that we undertake, despite the conditions. Being our longest service contract to date, we envisage that our relationship with Boral will continue in the future as successfully as it has in the past.

I have used SBS scaffolding as a company on multiple infrastructure projects throughout Australia. Namely in QLD, NSW and Victoria. Currently they are here on the Westgate Tunnel Project which is a $6.7Bn federal and state govt funded road project as the second option the Westgate bridge to enter the city of Melbourne. SBS are the premier scaffolding company in my opinion in regards to performance, quality and flexibility. In this case they are continuously working with our extensive teams to enable the ongoing building and maintenance of the two largest TBMs (Tunnel Boring Machines) to ever be in the Southern Hemisphere at 15.6m diameter. This represents two 5 story buildings being built and maintained on a 24hr a day 7 day roster. SBS have a huge inventory of gear and permanent staff which creates a professional output and accountability within any contract they are involved in I would not hesitate to recommend SBS on any major projects in Australia and will certainly be using them in future.
