YEARS
BUILDING ON PARTNERSHIPS
SINCE 1977
A WORD FROM GEORGE
It’s heartwarming to reflect on the past 40 years and know that Pindan has been committed to its ethos of ‘building on partnerships’ from the very beginning.
The strength of our partnerships with clients, contractors, suppliers and
the community underpins our long history of delivering integrated construction, capital and management solutions.
In addition, the collective commitment and wealth of knowledge from our leadership group and staff sets Pindan apart, empowers us to
continually stride ahead and is the reason loyal clients, partners and investors choose us time and again.
Strong family values and a commitment to philanthropy mean our
community, charity and environmental initiatives are part of everyday life at Pindan.
I am immensely proud of our achievements and thank everyone who has played a part in our story.
George Allingame
Managing Director

Described as humble, down-to-earth and simply the nicest blokes to work for in the industry, George and David’s enduring partnership is Pindan personified. It is their vision, passion and leadership that has made Pindan into a modern day success.
