ASKIN coolroom

I was quite specific about the type of coolroom I needed for my restaurant, and the guys at ASKIN built what I wanted perfectly. You buy good food, and you pay top dollar for it, so you want it to last, and a great ASKIN coolroom does that.

Adrian Richardson,  Celebrity Chef, Laluna

Excellent outcome for all

It's always great working with a group of people with a common goal and working with the ASKIN team no exception on our CSL Behring project. Quality outcome focused, backed by support for design and delivery was what we wanted in a partner, and that's what the ASKIN team delivered. It was a pleasure to work with a company whose values, performance and approach align with our own. It’s been an excellent outcome for all.

Ronald Schack, Project Manager, Cockram Construction Australia Pty Ltd

ASKIN were first class

The fire and acoustic values are our two biggest concerns, and from my point of view, it is widely accepted and acknowledged as that ASKIN can provide the right material. ASKIN were first class when we needed them.

Arthur WIlliams, Probuild Constructions, Executive Director

Strongly recommended ASKIN as a partner with Coles

ASKIN have access to a range of panel products. Whether it's an XFLAM, EPS-FR, mineral wool, or PIR panel, they will come up with an answer. When creating the Coles ASKIN Specification brief, ASKIN would provide solutions which satisfied our needs. That's why I strongly recommended ASKIN as a partner with Coles.

Reg Binding,  Building Services Engineer, Coles

ASKIN was extremely helpful

The XFLAM panel was quite efficient in the construction process, able to cover large areas of walls and roofing in such a short amount of time. The panel also has an aesthetic appeal within the architectural design. ASKIN was extremely helpful throughout the whole process.
