With the latest modern facility, company intends to fulfill customer needs
Michael Clennett, ATCO’s Managing Director, Structures & Logistics stated, “Our new manufacturing facility will complement existing plants in Victoria and Western Australia, providing fantastic coverage for the growing demand of our products and services across Australia and Oceania. By creating an expanded modern facility, we will be able to meet the needs of our customers in traditional markets such as mining and construction, and service emerging markets within the health, education, justice, and commercial sectors.” He added, “We specifically chose the site for its proximity and access to distribution networks including road, rail and port as well as the capacity to draw on an established supply chain infrastructure and workforce.”
