The company operates a modern fabricating plant in Arima, situated on approximately 13 acres of land. The main fabrication workshop alone occupies in excess of 200,000 square feet. The capacity of the works is approximately 12,000 tons per annum. Typically at any given time, raw materials in excess of 2,000 tons are carried in stock, allowing the company to remain flexible to customer requirements and offer quicker delivery times than other companies. The main workshop is equipped with nine overhead cranes, each with a five-ton capacity.
Mobile cranes are available also where required to handle very large structural components.
Almost all welding is carried out using automatic MIG welding machines and an automatic blasting plant is used for surface preparation of steelwork prior to painting. The workshop is supported by a fully computerised integrated engineering design and drafting department together with other ancillary support services. The company, for example, operates its own transport fleet, has its own maintenance division, has an on-site restaurant, canteen and other catering facilities, organises its own security services and has an ambulance and first aid facilities. In addition to the fabrication of structural steelwork, the company offers other related structural components and products. Yorke Structures Limited is ever mindful of its corporate responsibility to encourage excellence among the youth of Trinidad and Tobago.
