388 George Street is an A-Grade commercial office building initially built-in 1976. Multiplex completed an entire strip out followed by the installation of new services, lifts, finishes and modifications to the five four-level atrium that intersects the building. Multiplex will also deliver a new five-level luxury retail podium building.
On Time Insulation was chosen by a top Australian HVAC provider as their insulation subcontractor of choice to partner with on this high profile project. The partnership was cemented from a history of trust and capability, having successfully delivered many Tier 1 and 2 projects together over the years.
Their Needs
Our contract involved all HVAC insulation components of base build works in existing tower and basement levels, and all HVAC insulation components of the newly constructed podium building.

All floors were handed over in a timely fashion to Multiplex. Another successful Tier 1 project built on trust between the business’ aligned with common goals.
