Project Overview

Moving 60–70 tonnes of fertiliser a day is critical.

With that amount of product going out daily, we have to be able to unload and pick up fertiliser safely and quickly – Brent Brimblecombe, Operations Manager – ‘The Anchorage’

 

R&F’s Approach

Comprehensive Custom Design and Construction by R&F St George

Working alongside local R & F St George distributor Josh Vickers from Stick Man Constructions, the team delivered a custom-engineered fertiliser bunker designed specifically for the realities of large-scale farming.

Built to perform in black soil conditions, the design focused on structural integrity, ease of access, and operational efficiency — ensuring the bunker could withstand heavy use while remaining practical for day-to-day handling.

The Solution

Rolling Roof Bunker for High-Volume, Efficient Storage

The result was a robust fertiliser bunker featuring a rolling roof system, allowing for fast loading, unloading, and protection of stored product from the elements.

Designed with workflow in mind, the structure supports high-volume movement while minimising downtime and reducing manual handling risks. The rolling roof provides flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to operate in changing weather conditions without slowing the job down.
