Operating since 1948, SVC Products is an ISO-accredited Victorian manufacturer of high quality, industry-compliant precast concrete products made to suit multiple applications across civil and landscape construction.

SVC’s unique approach to precast concrete was recently showcased in Mirvac’s Liv Aston building project in Melbourne’s Northbank precinct. The team manufactured and supplied 78 large-format precast concrete planters for the building’s façade, each weighing about 5 tonnes. This project, which amounted to 390 tonnes of precast concrete, is yet another demonstration of their expertise in handling large-scale projects.

The manufacturing process for these planters began in late 2022, with deliveries completed by mid-2023. SVC faced significant challenges, including labour shortages due to COVID-19 and necessary design adjustments to meet weight constraints. Despite these hurdles, SVC re-engineered the planters to be lighter, with each floor featuring three smaller units installed side-by-side.

This project highlights SVC’s capability to innovate and adapt. Despite the complexity and typical use of precast products at ground level, SVC successfully produced precast units that were feasible for installation on a high-rise building, demonstrating their proficiency in precast concrete fabrication.

Beyond Liv Aston, SVC’s portfolio includes high-rise projects like the Aurora Melbourne Central and Shadow Play apartment towers. SVC supports various infrastructure projects, and are currently working on bespoke signage for ANZAC Station, outdoor furniture for Parkdale Secondary College, and bollards for Luna Park and the Shrine of Remembrance.

SVC is a leader in precast concrete manufacturing and is committed to delivering high-quality, innovative solutions. Specialising in precast concrete fabrication, SVC offers both standard and custom-made products tailored to meet unique project requirements. Their experienced team provides dedicated customer support throughout the design-to-delivery process, ensuring final product solutions satisfy all project criteria for quality, performance and durability.
