M4 Wharf Hamilton | World Demolition Awards 2026 Finalist

M4 Wharf Hamilton has been shortlisted in the Recycling category at the 2026 World Demolition Awards.
Delivered for BMD at Northshore Hamilton, the project involved the demolition of a 302-metre timber pile and girder wharf and associated structures on the Brisbane River.
Recovery and reuse were considered from the outset and influenced the way the project was planned and delivered.

The result was a 99.5% diversion from landfill, including the recovery of more than 34,000 lineal metres of old-growth Ironbark and Tallowood for high-value reuse.

There’s plenty more to the M4 Wharf story, but for now we’re pleased to see the project, its recycling outcomes and the work behind them recognised on the international stage.

The winners will be announced at the World Demolition Awards in Madrid on 5 November.

At the end of last year, we set our sights on New South Wales.

It's not that we've never worked there before. We have experience across NSW on hospitals, explosive facilities, infrastructure and mining. But we wanted to extend further into the state and build something lasting, bringing the same capability and resources we're known for here at our base in Queensland.

Now in July, we’ve mobilised to multiple NSW projects this year along with a strong pipeline of upcoming contracted work and tenders.

From demolition works at a regional hospital to a coal handling and preparation plant in the Hunter Valley, to a wharf project you’ll hear more about soon, our team has taken on some genuinely complex work across the state this year.

These wins don't happen by chance. They happen because of an estimating and bid team putting in the hours to show our capability. A team willing to travel over 1000km and deliver. Engineers who adapt no matter the site. Operators, labourers and project managers who commit to every job, regardless of sector or distance from home.

A huge thank you to everyone at DEMEX who made this possible, this is another step in a bigger journey.

Mining & Resources projects in the Hunter Valley and Central Queensland. Hospital demolition in regional NSW. Major infrastructure projects in Brisbane. Island clean up projects off the East Coast.

Just a snapshot of where DEMEX has been operating lately.

Remote sites, dense urban environments, regional infrastructure, island logistics. The location may change, but the expectation never does. Delivering across environments this diverse takes control under pressure, proven systems, and people who know how to perform when it counts.

With a team of 120+, in house engineers, our own workshop in Yatala, and a specialised fleet of 220+, DEMEX is built to mobilise.

Based in Queensland with projects across Australia. Wherever the work is, we're set up to get there and deliver.

Projects like the Fitzroy to Gladstone Pipeline Project in Rockhampton reflect how we operate and deliver engineered demolition solutions in complex, high risk environments.

Our team supported delivery of critical intake works within a live river environment as part of the broader Fitzroy to Gladstone Pipeline (FGP), a major initiative being delivered for the Queensland Government and Gladstone Area Water Board designed to strengthen long term water security for the region.

Delivered by the McConnell Dowell and BMD Group Joint Venture (MBJV), the project includes a 117 km pipeline, treatment infrastructure, reservoirs and pumping stations that will help support future urban growth and emerging industries across Central Queensland.

Our scope involved precision intake demolition while managing hydraulic pressures, environmental controls and restricted access conditions. Our in-house engineers worked openly and collaboratively throughout pre tender and delivery, developing methodologies to safely address complex river based challenges.

This included monitoring requirements and constrained access conditions, engineered geotechnical platforms and controlled water management strategies, achieving zero environmental breaches and incidents, minimising environmental disturbance and protecting surrounding ecosystems.

DEMEX has been on some of Australia's most remote and logistically complex sites, far from our Yatala headquarters and far outside the reach of a standard supply chain. Over time, it's become one of our greatest strengths.

What makes it possible: years of experience planning works where there is no margin for error. Every resource is calculated and every risk is anticipated before a single piece of machinery moves.

If your asset is in a hard to reach location, that's exactly where we operate best.
