On Saturday 29th June the Australian Institute of Building Awards were held in Perth; Perkins Builders are delighted to report Richard, one of our Project Managers was recipient of an AIB Award, for Commercial Construction $1 Million to $25 Million for his work on the Bannister Downs Dairy Creamery (BDD).

The BDD is a unique, state of the art complex that integrates agriculture, industry and tourism into an all-in-one milk production facility allowing high quality produce and a clear, transparent process from grass to gate, establishing a unique point of difference compared with other dairies in Australia. The overall design of BDD is an integrated complex of buildings, services and vehicular zones container within an overall site footprint.

Congratulations again Richard, and to the whole and the Perkins team for their work on this project!

Recently, some vile and racist comments were made about a young, indigenous West Coast Eagles

player on social media.

These abhorrent comments have been responded to by the West Coast Eagles with an amazing demonstration of unity, a message not only to stand against racism but to teach it’s importance; all supported by the wider AFL community.

As the company constructing West Coast’s new Training and Administration Centre at Lathlain Park and as a company with a firm belief of fairness and equality for everyone at the core of our business, we choose to show our support, we choose to make a stand.

Perkins Builders and our dedicated sub-contractor team are proud to stand with the West Coast Eagles.

We stand against racism. #whenwillitend
