Spantech has a wide range of project-ready designs for EO storage.  These ADF approved designs include the Spantech 13m ECB, Spantech 23m ECB and Spantech 17.5m ECB.  The new 17.5m ECB is a highly efficient Igloo with vertical sidewalls capable of storing over 360 pallets.

All Spantech ECB can be licensed as 7-bar Type 4 Igloos to store up to 75,000kgs (NEQ) of HD1.1 at minimal NATO separation distances. They can be built in lengths from 13m to 32m long as required to suit the site and client’s operational needs.

EO stores are available with a wide range of options including Australian made Blast Doors. Ventilation options include: efficient natural ventilation, A/C, and dehumidification systems.

Spantech Construction Technology

Spantech designs and constructs all its EO Buildings using innovative construction technology developed by the company.  This technology ensures Spantech EO Buildings are:

• extremely safe
• fast to construct
• meet all licensing requirements
• fit for purpose
• operationally efficient
• low maintenance and low whole of life costs, and
• excellent value for money.

Results of full-scale explosive tests and Finite Element Analysis verify Spantech EO Buildings comply with eDEP101 and applicable NATO standards, and are among the safest EO Buildings available.

Spantech EO Buildings can contain up to 100% Australian content.

Project Experience

Our team is highly experienced with an excellent record of delivering complex facilities on time and within budget.  Since 1989, Spantech has successfully delivered over 150 individual EO Buildings to the Australian Defence Force.  Internationally, the company has designed and constructed over 500 EO Buildings for NATO member Defence Forces.

Commercial Roofing Systems

Spantech also supplies and installs a range of wide-span metal roofing systems.

Spantech long-line straight roofing profiles can span up to 20m between supports to significantly reduce the amount of structural steel in a building, saving time and construction costs.

The company’s curved roofing profiles can span up to 36m wide, the widest free-span roofing system in the country.

Spantech’s metal roofing profiles are manufactured on-site with mobile roll-forming machines. The process is fast, efficient and ideally suited for construction in remote locations.

Commercial Formwork Systems

Spantech Formwork 300 is a composite metal formwork system used to build suspended concrete slabs.  The system is the most efficient in its class, allowing builders to significantly accelerate construction programs for high-rise office and accommodation buildings, and multi-level car parks.
