Built for performance
As part of our ongoing investment in infrastructure, Woolston has recently undergone key upgrades to strengthen operational capacity and service quality.
Expanded MPI-compliant hardstand areas now support safe and efficient handling of deep sea containers, while our upgraded truck loading zone allows for faster vehicle flow and improved access across the site.
Enhanced rail connectivity
Next on our development pathway is the upgrade of Woolston’s on-site rail siding, in collaboration with KiwiRail. This enhancement will allow greater freight volumes to move with speed and reliability, reducing road congestion and emissions, while supporting our sustainability goals.
