The project had to be completed within 6 weeks. We have put together a team of dismantling specialists and created a project plan and progress schedule.
We have started dismantling the power supplies. Once everything was disconnected, we started carefully disassembling the individual parts of the production lines and packaging line. Subsequently, the steel structures associated with the production lines were demolished, including the concrete structures. Next to the production hall were a number of silos that were part of the production process. We dismantled these, lifted them off and prepared them for transport. As soon as the dismantling work was completed, we demolished the steel structure. We delivered the hall completely empty and clean to the client.
We had a very pleasant time working with the client. This resulted in us completing the work within the specified period of 6 weeks to the full satisfaction of the customer. The delivery report was a huge positive boost for the project team!
The Quality and Health, Safety and the Environment policy is an ongoing process. That is why DDM is continuously working on improving all these areas to keep improving safety levels.
DDM was rewarded with a World Demolition Award in the Civils category.
