“There’s no doubt about it – farm buildings in New Zealand have to be built tough,” said Totalspan general manager Leon Skylakis.


“Farming, by its very nature, is hard work – and a lot of that work is hard on equipment and buildings. Couple that with the conditions every season brings throughout the country and strength becomes a vital issue when selecting a farm building that will perform to expectations and last for years.”


According to Leon Skylakis, building for local conditions has been key to Totalspan’s success New Zealand.


“We’ve been part of the local landscape for 30 years now – and with that experience has come an understanding of how to create the perfect shed or building that will stand up to life on a Kiwi farm.”


Locally owned and operated, Totalspan is part of the Spanbild group of companies, which is the largest manufacturer of steel buildings in the country. All of Totalspan’s buildings are designed and fabricated at the company’s Christchurch factory.
