Humes fire at Penrose site

Operational Update26 October 2017FBUMaterials

Auckland, 27 October 2017:

Humes Pipeline Systems, one of Fletcher Building’s businesses, is currently assessing the damage from a fire

overnight to its sales and distribution centre in Penrose, Auckland. No staff were on site and no one was injured in

the fire.


The site is one of four sales centres in Auckland and 25 nationally, and there is no manufacturing located there.

Accordingly it is not expected to have a material impact on Fletcher Building’s FY18 earnings.


Humes is working to minimize disruption to customers by using nearby Auckland sales centres.
