Kalamia's New Boiler Stack APPROVED

A major new piece of infrastructure at the Kalamia Mill has successfully passed its first annual inspection, marking a strong milestone for the Burdekin region’s sugar industry.

The 72-metre steel boiler stack was installed and commissioned ahead of the 2025 production season, playing a key role in mill operations. An early finish to the season created an opportunity for the project team and principal contractors, EDMS Australia, to complete the stack’s first inspection well ahead of Christmas.

The inspection was completed without issue, with the structure passing all requirements and receiving positive feedback from the inspection team.

To mark the occasion, the EDMS team also presented a name plate for the new boiler stack, which has since been proudly attached to the concrete pedestal at the site.

The successful inspection highlights the quality of the installation and the strong collaboration between mill staff and contractors, setting the facility up well for future production seasons.
