AGB Group was responsible for design, documentation and supervision of the modifications to the existing in-feed line to the hardwood chipper. The existing building was being badly damaged by the loading of logs onto the in-feed chain and the build up of waste and rubbish was a constant problem. A new wall was established to protect the building and a pit installed to collect the rubbish and waste. This pit was easily accessed by a bobcat for cleaning.
