Strategically, this project award further solidifies Alltype Engineering’s recognition as a Tier Two construction contractor within the mining, mineral processing and resources sector, leveraging off the proven self-execution multidiscipline construction capabilities of the company.

Our project team has done a fantastic job on the rotary kiln project to date, and we appreciate Lynas’ recognition of this performance and the positive collaboration between our companies, who are both focused on safe and efficient construction of this critical process plant infrastructure,” Alltype Engineering’s Managing Director, Kelvin Andrijich, said.
