Would you believe you're statistically more likely to be injured on the stairs than in a lift? It sounds surprising, but it's true. Modern lifts are designed with multiple independent safety systems, including overspeed governors, braking systems, safety gear that locks onto the guide rails, and multiple steel ropes. Together, these systems provide multiple layers of protection to help ensure safe operation. This was just one of the many fascinating insights shared during tod

As Vertical Transportation consultants, staying connected with manufacturers and understanding the latest solutions available in the market plays an important role in delivering practical and well coordinated building designs. The session provided valuable insights into KLEEMANN’s approach to customised lift solutions, engineering flexibility and their capability to support projects with unique design and operational requirements. The discussion covered a range of topics incl

Engineering doesn't stop when a project is issued for construction. Materials evolve. Standards change. Products improve. Better engineering decisions come from understanding not just what a product does, but why it was developed, where it performs best, and the challenges it is designed to solve. Earlier this week, our hydraulic team welcomed Hydroflow Distributors (Aust) Pty Ltd to the Goldfish & Bay office for a technical Lunch & Learn exploring the Saint-Gobain PAM Ensign

Earlier this week we hosted Mitsubishi Electric for a LUNCH & LEARN with our Mechanical team. What started as a standard product presentation quickly shifted into a deeper conversation about refrigerant regulation, plant flexibility and the evolving role of chillers and heat pumps in modern building services. The session explored how refrigerant pathways in Europe and Australia are shifting toward lower-GWP and natural alternatives, and what that means for local system desi

Last week we hosted NAFFCO for a Lunch and Learn that brought together our hydraulic, fire, and mechanical teams. What could have been a...
