Octa Mobile Surgery Unit
FDL was involved in the design and manufacture of fibreglass components for a mobile operating theatre produced for Mobile Medical Technology Ltd, based in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Our role was to design and produce the truck and trailer fronts and supply lightweight GRP panels for construction of the trailer unit. The brief was to provide the customer with a product that would not only meet their needs but be a benchmark for the future. We were provided with a concept drawing, a freightliner truck to work from, and a strict deadline.
The building of the theatre was coordinated by Rotorua company Mills Tui Ltd, and Jurgen Brand of Designbrand in Wellington was commissioned to do the design work.
