Gladstone Bulk Grain Handling Complex |
| Registered Name |
Gladstone Bulk Grain Handling Complex |
| Significance |
Established by the South Australian Co-operative of Bulk Handling (SACBH) in 1957, the Gladstone Bulk Grain Handling Complex is associated with the industrialisation of South Australia's grain industry through the adoption of bulk handling. The complex grew steadily throughout the second half of the twentieth century to become one of the largest in the state. When SACBH demutualised in 2000, the Gladstone Bulk Grain Handling Complex had a capacity of approximately 500,000 tonnes, demonstrating the success of SACBH and the implementation of bulk handling in South Australia. The complex retains a diverse range of storage types representing two key periods in the history of bulk grain handling in South Australia, namely SACBH's establishment in the 1950s and its later expansion between 1980 and 2000. |
