Xtend-Life Nutraceutical Facility

Christchurch
COMPLETED
March 2013
Xtend-Life’s new international head office and nutraceutical production facility was designed and constructed by Apollo Projects and was completed in March 2013.
A key objective in the design of the 1,810m² facility was to optimise the efficiency of the production areas, creating clear, safe process flows while eliminating unnecessary product movements.
The positively pressurised production areas incorporate specialist cleanroom detailing including Kingspan PIR insulated panel surfaces to meet FDA nutraceutical production requirements for export to the United States.
The architecturally designed office, client areas and staff amenities utilise the north facing aspect bringing natural light into the spaces to create an open and effective working environment.
We are a nationwide Design and Build company with specialist knowledge and experience across verticals as diverse as cold storage, dairy, wine, food and beverage processing, commercial and retail spaces, and recreation and leisure.
Whatever the project, our focus is simple - listen to our client and deliver absolute trust and certainty from the start.
At Apollo, we've never been afraid to challenge the status quo.
When Craig Waghorn and Paul Lloyd started Apollo in 2001, they were determined to break away from the traditional management process and do things differently. They saw an opportunity to partner with clients from the very start, taking their ideas right from concept all the way through to completion – something that was poorly executed in the industry!
Today, Apollo is a leading New Zealand design and construction company with over 40 professional project delivery and support staff across the country. We regularly work with major national companies including Fonterra, Goodman Fielder, George Weston Foods, Ngai Tahu and Lion Co., as well as private owner-operated businesses, sports organisations and Government/Council entities.
Even though Apollo has grown over eighteen years, we’ve never lost our core value that a ‘client’s trust is everything’. Apollo is different simply because we operate as a partner with our clients – our goal from the very beginning has always been to build strong relationships from which we can deliver successful projects.
