Melbourne Central is one of Melbourne’s most recognised retail and dining destinations, featuring more than 300 retailers across five levels. The precinct also includes a major cinema complex and a strong mix of Australian and international brands.

The centre attracts thousands of visitors each day and requires reliable infrastructure to support ongoing operations. To improve system performance, Melbourne Central upgraded its waste treatment infrastructure with new pipework and grease interceptors.

Kennedys Group’s Williamstown Plumbing team delivered the project in collaboration with Norman Disney & Young (NDY). Our team supported both the design development and construction phases to ensure the new greasy waste system met operational requirements.

The project included removing existing grease interceptors and installing 12 new Viking Plastics grease interceptors throughout the facility. In addition, our team fabricated and installed new pipework and vent systems to support the upgraded infrastructure.

Kennedys Group also upgraded the water supply system and replaced heavily corroded pipework across key service areas. Fire Rated Solutions completed all required fire sealing works to maintain compliance throughout the building.

The busy retail environment required careful coordination to minimise disruption to tenants, visitors, and daily operations. Through detailed planning and strong communication, our team safely delivered the project while maintaining efficient site access and workflow continuity.

Kennedys Group completed the upgrade on schedule, within budget, and in line with strict safety and quality standards.
