 Sporting gift - Solid Energy Sports Centre
Thanks to a generous one million dollar donation
from Solid Energy towards a new sports and leisure
facility, the Solid Energy Sports Centre in Westport
has become a key part of the local community. Solid
Energy is one of the biggest employers in the region
and chose this project with others as a way to give
back to the community.
The striking sports and leisure facility includes an
aquatic centre, netball courts, squash courts, an
artificial hockey surface and fitness centre. It is home
to many local sporting organisations and is used by
schools as part of their physical education, sport and
leisure programmes.
With Villaboard panels finished in clear Resene
Multishield+ specified for much of the interior, over
500 litres of this clear finish was needed to complete
the whole project. The clear finish made way to a
painted finish courtside, with the plasterboard walls
finished in Resene Broadwall 3 in 1 followed
by Resene Zylone Sheen. Resene Broadwall 3
in 1 is a spray only sealer and surfacer that offers
rapid turnaround times, increased efficiency and an
improved surface for topcoating. The main stadium walls were finished in Resene Wafer (pink biscuit),
the foyer in Resene Pot Pourri (dusky pink rose)
and Resene Foam (pastel blue), the fitness room
in Resene Energy Yellow (bright yellow), Resene
Hypnotic (celery green) and Resene Quarter
Spanish White (light neutral) and the changing
rooms in Resene Quarter Spanish White
topcoated in Resene Multishield+.
The two new squash courts were both finished
in Resene Squash Court Coating while the
laminated beams in the pool complex were finished
in Resene Uracryl 402 for a tough durable finish.
Outside, Resene Waterborne Woodsman tinted
to Resene Ironbark (brown) and Resene Uracryl
were used for aesthetic appeal and to protect the
exterior substrates from the elements.
The finished centre is an impressive community
asset and a hive of sporting activity; a very special
gift that this community can enjoy and be proud of
for many years to come.
