Ocean by Meriton

LOCATION: Surfers Paradise

TYPE OF PROJECT: Residential High-Rise

YEAR(S): 2019-2022

CLIENT: Infinity Formwork

Australia’s largest apartment developer Meriton says its latest development “Ocean, Gold Coast” will transform the Surfers Paradise Beachfront.

Rising 252 metres, Ocean will offer residents unobstructed, never-to-be built out views across the sea and beyond.

Ocean is set to be a beachfront landmark, bringing to life a new era in modern living, one where lifestyle, convenience and luxury meet.

Working with Infinity Formwork, Cogent Scaffolding is supplying and erecting the formwork and perimeter scaffolding for this project.

In March 2022, on Level 76, hundreds of metres in the air, the Cogent team have cantilevered our scaffold out and continued to rise up another 10 metres so that the “Crown” can be installed on top of one of the most iconic and tallest residential towers Australia has ever seen, Ocean by Meriton.

Jobs like this require an enormous amount of planning and precision, not to mention an absence of a fear of heights! Our work crews have spent an exciting few days up on level 76 working hard to safely install this highly technical scaffolding structure, but also enjoying the views of the beautiful Gold Coast!
