AllPrep Flooring Specialists

AllPrep Flooring Specialists, renowned for its expertise in floor preparation, levelling, and concrete repair, applied innovative techniques to create perfectly flat floors within the 10 buildings of NINE by Mirvac project.

With over 30 years of experience, AllPrep has extensive expertise in preparing subfloors and can refurbish, and level both old and new concrete surfaces. For NINE by Mirvac, AllPrep Flooring utilised the Laticrete Supercap Pump Truck System, a methodology with over 15 years of global application success.

As the only fleet of its kind in Australia, the ALLPREP LATICRETE® SUPERCAP® system has earned a world-class reputation for its versatility and speed. It is also praised as a major advancement in occupational health and safety for floor-levelling workers and other trades nearby.

With all product mixing and pumping done in the Mobile Blending Unit (MBU), the ALLPREP LATICRETE® SUPERCAP® system eliminates the need for manual handling and unloading of heavy product bags—often hundreds of 20kg bags per job. It also prevents exposure to dangerous silica dust, a common hazard with traditional manual mixing inside buildings.

The ALLPREP LATICRETE® SUPERCAP® system lays a
self-levelling compound 50% faster than other products in the market and sets in only four hours, allowing further construction developments to take place in record time.

Tasked with completing comprehensive floor preparation works across all 10 buildings of the NINE by Mirvac site, AllPrep undertook concrete rectification using the advanced SUPERCAP® SC500
self-levelling underlayment to 445 Apartments.

AllPrep’s innovative approach to pouring the self-levelling cement involves pumping it from the self-contained truck at street level directly into the building. This not only enhances efficiency and ensures a quality finish but significantly reduces the environmental footprint by minimising silica dust exposure within the building.

When it comes to floor prep, levelling, and all things concrete repair, coatings, and polished concrete, AllPrep Flooring places quality first. For large projects, they start by inspecting the floor, then a team of skilled surveyors determine the rectifications required – an essential step for concrete rectification works.

AllPrep prides itself on delivering high-quality results on the first try.

“We have the expertise to provide the best solutions for almost any application. Getting it right the first time is crucial,” said David Kealy, AllPrep Flooring Managing Director. “We’re always raising the bar for our customers and clients. We’ve worked with Australia’s top construction companies and, as our results show, we’ve met and exceeded their expectations,” David adds.

The AllPrep site team of 10 commenced work on the NINE by Mirvac site in November 2023 and completed their last pour in July 2024. Currently, the AllPrep team are utilising this system on the prestigious One Sydney Harbour Project, pumping self-levelling materials up to 70 floors in a single application from street level.

Through innovative techniques, a steadfast commitment to quality, and an unwavering focus on environmental and health standards, AllPrep continues to exceed industry expectations. Their reputation for delivering first-time excellence is well-earned, with a wealth of industry knowledge informing every aspect of their operations. From the initial floor inspection by experienced surveyors to the final installation of self-smoothing products, AllPrep’s meticulous approach guarantees optimal results, meeting even the tightest project requirements.

Recently completed and milestone projects include LendLease –One Sydney Harbour, Mirvac – Nine, Richard Crookes – Sirius, Toga – Wicks Place.

SYNC

SYNC, an industry leader in prefabricated construction, has once again raised the bar with its latest project: the fabrication of 769 bathroom pods for Mirvac’s luxury residential development, NINE by Mirvac. This landmark project highlights SYNC’s commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability, revolutionising how bathrooms are integrated into high-rise structures.

At the heart of SYNC’s approach is its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Laverton, Victoria, where each bathroom pod was meticulously crafted. The pods feature bespoke designs with premium fixtures, natural stone-clad walls, and advanced feature lighting. Integrating 28 unique pod types highlights SYNC’s customised,
high-quality prefabrication capacity.

“Our focus on prefabrication allows us to deliver high-quality, bespoke bathroom solutions while significantly reducing waste and improving efficiency,” said Chris Ong, Managing Director of SYNC.

By employing Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) principles, SYNC significantly reduced waste and improved recycling rates. A remarkable 99% of materials were recycled within the factory, showcasing a true commitment to environmental stewardship.

“Innovative construction methods and a commitment to sustainability are at the core of what we do at SYNC. This project exemplifies how we can deliver exceptional results while maintaining our environmental and social responsibilities,” added Chris.

SYNC’s off-site fabrication of the bathroom pods not only streamlined the construction process but also significantly enhanced site safety and efficiency. SYNC effectively mitigated significant risks associated with traditional construction methods by reducing the number of trades required on-site and utilising specialised machinery for material handling.

“By building prototypes and manufacturing off-site, we can control quality and safety to a higher degree, ensuring that each pod meets our stringent standards before reaching the site,” Chris emphasised.

This project is yet another testament to SYNC’s mastery of integrated modular solutions, reinforcing its reputation as a premier contractor in the prefabricated construction industry.

Azzurri Concrete

Formerly the site of Channel 9’s headquarters, the new residential community, NINE by Mirvac, has been built on the solid foundations poured by Azzurri Concrete.

Initially engaged for the early works package with the civil contractor, Azzurri was later contracted to supply, pump, and place all the concrete for Stage 1, with Stage 2 as an optional extension. The team also handled temporary works engineering designs for the concrete tower placing boom and oversaw concrete mix designs.

Azzurri delivered a two-level carpark and 10 new buildings comprising 445 apartments in a controlled residential area. This included supplying, pumping, and placing 40,000m³ of concrete using four tower placing booms and a stationary boom.
“One of the standout aspects of this project was our environmentally efficient water washout system. It not only minimised wastage but also showcased our commitment to sustainable construction practices,” said Bernie Orbell, Area Manager.

Work commenced with the early works pour in October 2022 and continued until February 2023. The first major ground slab pour and first major suspended slab took place in November 2021, while the final major suspended slab, Building H Level 7, was poured in July 2023, using 225m³ of concrete.

At peak times, Azzurri had up to 30 team members on-site, increasing to 40 for double pours, with a total of 240 personnel inducted over the project’s duration. The project faced significant challenges, including managing COVID-19 restrictions and unprecedented rain disruptions, but the team overcame these hurdles through dedicated efforts and strategic planning.

Established in 2004 by a team of seasoned professionals in Sydney’s west, Azzurri Concrete consistently enhances and expands its practices to meet and exceed the rising demand for world-class quality and service within the concrete construction industry.
