Delivering Excellence: Our Journey with Shoalhaven Hospital's Redevelopment Project
We are excited to be part of the redevelopment of Shoalhaven Hospital in New South Wales. In collaboration with Planet Plumbing, one of Australia's largest plumbing and hydraulic contractors, we are supplying specialised clinical tapware, secure tapware, and sanitaryware to enhance the hospital's facilities.
