Civmec - Australia Construction and Engineering Company

Executive Chairman - James Fitzgerald

Founded Ausclad, a privately‐owned insulation, fabrication and cladding company in Western Australia, in 1988.

By 1996, having expanded the company over 200%, he grouped various engineering and fabrication business holdings under the name, AGC Industries.

In 2004, it was further restructured under the holding company, AusGroup Limited.

In April 2005, AusGroup listed 49.5% equity on SGX.

With an 11.78% equity stake in AusGroup, Mr Fitzgerald was the third largest shareholder in the company.

Company Headquarters

Headquartered in Henderson, Western Australia – only 35km from Perth and 12km from the port of Fremantle – our waterfront facility is strategically located on 70,000sqm of prime waterfront real estate in the Australian Marine Complex (AMC).

The closeness to the AMC facilities allows us to capitalise and leverage off the existing surrounding infrastructure, such as the 100m floating dock, the 6,000t and 15,000t load out wharves, the large high bay assembly hall and the 4,600t capacity Self Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMT), all of which are situated within the AMC complex.

The workshop has high wide bays designed for the assembly of large modules. We can fabricate, assemble and commission smart modularised structures up to 29m wide x 18m high x 150m long undercover in one location.

Company History

Since the early 90’s, Civmec has provided engineering, civil construction and mechanical installation services to the resources sector across Australia.

In July 2009, Civmec was acquired from the ASX-listed VDM Group and merged with Ballymount Enterprises, a Western Australian based civil concrete construction company.

Following the merger, Civmec has been successful in working on some of the most prestigious projects in Western Australia, in both civil and precast concrete disciplines.

In October 2009, the company acquired the rights to strategic waterfront land at the Australian Marine Complex in Western Australia. On 9 December 2009, officiated by the State Minister for Industrial Development Mr Troy Buswell, Civmec held its official sod turning ceremony which represented the first stage of construction of its new facilities.

In September 2010, Civmec commenced its first fabrication project in its heavy engineering waterfront facility.

The new fabrication facility was officially opened by the WA Premier Colin Barnett on 19th April 2011.

In April 2012, Civmec Limited was listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX).

Rowsley Falling Wedge Formation

Falling wedge breakout direction will determine future price movement. Further upside thrust if there is a strong breakout above the green falling wedge. First resistance zone is the 31 to 30 cents region. If the current red channel support holds, potential price path will most probably be  within the red channel.

Any downward drop below the green falling wedge will test next support zone at 23 to 22 cents. Gap support upper boundary begins at 20 cents. Be nimble and happy trading.
