Project Timeline: Mid 2021

The Central Energy Trust Arena in Palmerston North is New Zealand’s largest multi-purpose sporting complex hosting over 3000 events a year and attracting more than 400,000 visitors each year. The upgrade of the arena will enable more events and bigger events, which will create and sustain jobs, providing a significant boost to the local community.

The $17 million upgrade included all-weather sports field, a new entrance plaza, pedestrian bridge, speedway pits and embankment. The new bathroom block on the south bank has been designed as the foundation for a new grandstand to seat 1610 people.

MacDonald Industries were engaged to supply bathrooms solutions for the stadium and worked closely with CPRW Architects to select appropriate products for every aspect of the bathroom.

Stadium bathroom design can be a challenge due to the high volume of traffic they get within really short periods of time. This is why it’s vital that these bathrooms are fitted with fixtures that are extremely durable and also well designed to cater to everyone's needs.

New Zealand's Leading Commercial Bathroom Products Supplier

Bathrooms for public buildings have a unique set of requirements.  

Unlike residential environments these bathrooms can be subject to intermittent, intensive use by a range of diverse users over short and long periods of time. Solutions need to provide robust, efficient and cost effective whole-of-life outcomes. Hydraulic design with the appropriate behind and front-of-wall fittings are vital for the long term viability of a commercial bathroom. 

With over 55 years experience in the design, specification, supply and installation of bathrooms for hospitals, schools, prisons, shopping malls, swimming pools, marae's, public buildings, sports stadiums, airports and public toilets Macdonald Industries has seen it all.
