Thanks to Besix Watpac Cairns Team for our recent site tour of Cairns Tropical Enterprise Centre. The planning and design is based on a 4 story, approximate 3500m² class 5 and 9b building (Office space and Education Facilities), and is being designed and constructed to achieve a 5-start Green Star certification when completed. Katie Fowden GAICD was on site from Hyne Timber and provided some great insights into XLam. Keen to have a visit on completion in 2025!
