Supplying Stainless Steel Security Products for New Werribee Police Station

At Britex, we understand the importance of security, durability and strength. We recently worked with the Werribee Police and Architectus to supply a range of heavy-duty, vandal-resistant stainless steel products to be used inside the Werribee Police Station and its holding cells.

As you might guess, these items were specifically chosen for key properties that make them durable and long-lasting even in the most challenging of settings. This project involved working with various stakeholders to select and supply a number of products for the new facility.

About the project

Our work was part of a new $45 million police complex built in Werribee, which spans 6000m2 and is four storeys high. Located at 134 Princes Highway, Werribee Police Station is one of the largest Victoria Police facilities outside of Melbourne, and it replaces the former Werribee Police Station. Completed at the end of 2020, the station houses over 460 staff comprising of uniformed police, transit police, crime investigation, transit and safety officers, and administration staff, among others.

At Britex, we are proud to have played a part in creating the new Werribee Police Station. The station services Melbourne's Western suburbs and emphasises functionality and flexibility in order to support effective contemporary police work in an urban setting. The new station is part of the Wyndham Justice Precinct and will be integrated into the wider local community, where police, court services, health and council services will be aligned.

The wide range of high quality stainless steel products that we supplied to the Werribee Police Complex project were specifically chosen for their vandal resistance, resistance to corrosion and high-security properties, making them the perfect choice for a high-stakes project like this where security and durability are of the utmost importance.
