A Heaping of Safety at Chelsea Sugar

A Heaping of Safety at Chelsea Sugar

in Case Studies

Is there really anything sweeter than knowing your staff and assets are well protected and risks minimised? Well, if anything could be, it’s all of this combined with being on site at Chelsea Sugar (NZ Sugar Company) in Auckland, NZ.

Wanting to take great care of their staff, they came to us for a solution that would stick. We suggested our certified and tested Barrier System, in a variety of configurations to suit height hazards and offering pedestrians protection against trucks and forklifts on site. Combined with our Personnel Gates, this provides safe access to the main floor so no one wanders in front of moving traffic.

It’s a carefully crafted recipe for safety: a heaping of robust barriers, a dash of high-visibility yellow for maximum awareness, and a generous sprinkling of secure access points to keep staff and assets protected.

Safety Yellow Protection for Dunedin's Iconic Golden Centre

Safety Yellow Protection for Dunedin's Iconic Golden Centre

Ram-raids are expensive, hazardous, and often preventable. When the Golden Centre Mall in the heart of Dunedin was ram-raided during the pre-Christmas rush in 2024, the team needed a cost-effective solution to protect their premises while maintaining much-needed access. The solution was our removable bollards. These 115mmØ bollards can be easily removed when access is required and securely locked in place at other times, providing effective protection against ram-raids without slowing down business. Available in safety yellow or galvanised finishes to suit the style of the premises, the bollards can be lifted and stored in our removable bollard holders when not in use. This makes them a practical deterrent and a reliable way to reduce damage and risk. The ram-raid at the Golden Centre caused extensive damage to the interior and exterior, including glass doors, retail spaces, and flooring, while also shaking the confidence of retailers. Our bollards offer a low-cost confidence boost, protecting the space and helping staff and visitors feel secure. The result is a safer, more resilient environment for retailers, visitors, and staff alike. Another example of Tru-Gard retail protection.

Waikaraka Speedway: Putting Safety in Pole Position

Waikaraka Speedway: Putting Safety in Pole Position

There’s nothing quite like the thrill of speedway, especially when you know safety has taken pole position. Working alongside the team at NZ Strong, we recently helped make Waikaraka Speedway a safer place to race. While we can’t control what happens on the track, we can improve protection for the on and off ramps, where vehicles enter and exit the raceway. These ramps are a known pinch point and a heavy traffic area during events, making them some of the busiest and potentially most hazardous parts of the site, except for the track itself. We installed our 910-2 Barrier system to clearly define vehicle access and protect these critical areas. The barriers create strong, highly visible boundaries, helping vehicles move safely while reducing the risk of accidents. As an added bonus, we also installed bespoke, mini versions of our bollards at the end of the pedestrian walkway, helping guide foot traffic and ensuring people can move safely around the site, even when race day activity is full throttle. This work is part of a wider $11 million upgrade to transform this historic and beloved venue. The improvements include an architecturally designed purpose-built track, new pit area, increased spectator capacity and facilities, and access for community events when the track is not in use. All coming together to create a safer, more enjoyable, and of course thrilling experience for everyone on site.  The result is a safer, more organised environment for both vehicles and pedestrians. Everyone can focus on the action on the track, knowing that practical safety measures are keeping them protected off the track.

Barrier Up & Risks Down at this Auckland Warehouse

Barrier Up & Risks Down at this Auckland Warehouse

One of our most popular barrier setups is the 910-2 Barrier, and for the cherry on top it's finished with our Tru-Gard Hand Rail. This was the solution of choice for a large new-build warehouse in Auckland, where the goal was simple: keep pedestrians safe while they navigate the full perimeter of the building. Personnel Gates were placed in key high-traffic areas, including office entrances and exits. By slowing people down and requiring them to open the gate before stepping onto the warehouse floor, staff get a moment to check for forklifts and moving vehicles. It’s a small pause that makes a big difference when people and machines share the same space. Bollards were also installed in strategic locations to protect sensitive electronic equipment. Nobody wants downtime caused by accidental damage, and our certified bollards provide tough, reliable protection exactly where it’s needed. This project is a solid example of how we combine smart design, certified protection, and practical placement to keep both people and assets safe. In a busy warehouse, it’s these little touches that make a big difference. \\
