Bupa Retirement Home - Gore

Supreme Site Works was involved in Stage 1 of the Bupa Retirement Home build and are now in Stage 3. The work they have undertaken has included forming all foundations for the villas, digging all footings, boxing them, placing steel and concrete. As part of Stage 1, they also asphalted a number of the driveways.

As part of Stage 3, Supreme will be using a Cupolex system. This is a raft set up and footings will not need to be dug, resulting in time savings for all involved.

Cupolex is an environmentally-friendly new concrete foundation building system that is a cost-effective alternative to rib raft, waffle pod or slab. It’s almost a zero waste flooring solution that is made from 100% recycled polypropylene (from car batteries, etc) and can also be recycled at the end of its life. It’s a more environmentally-friendly product to work with in comparison to polystyrene, as it isn’t going to crumble, blow away and make it into waterways. The Cupolex system is quick and easy to install, saving clients in labour costs, and has optimised reinforcing.
