Wilmac Corio

Alteria 125 Cladding meeting the demands of commercial projects

Project Overview: The first stage of Wilman Corio marks a significant milestone in commercial development for the Greater Geelong area. Wilmac is spearheading the creation of 12 standalone industrial properties, strategically located for quick access to the Geelong Ring Road. These brand-new warehouses, each covering at least 1,300 sqm, are set to cater to the booming demand as Geelong’s population is projected to more than double over the next 30 years, with over 110,000 new residents expected in the vicinity.

As Geelong experiences rapid growth, the demand for high-quality, durable, and aesthetically pleasing commercial properties has surged. Wilmac aimed to create an industrial estate that not only met functional needs but also stood out with an impressive facade. The key challenge was to find a aluminium cladding panels that combined the warmth and appearance of wood with the durability, minimal maintenance, and safety required for commercial buildings.
