At Steel Industries, our advanced construction technologies such as Framecad offer many advantages over traditional construction techniques.
The impressive new CPL Bakery in Gerehu provides a great example of how this new technology benefits our customers. Put simply, this new way of designing and building is all about the rapid construction of quality buildings to deliver a faster return on investment and new business opportunities.
Here’s a snapshot of what our new Framecad 450iT and the 300iT machines delivered:
