LOCAL MANUFACTURING

Geofabrics are the only geosynthetic manufacturer in Australia. We employ more than 100 local manufacturing staff, have over 1,000 active regional suppliers and return more than $10 million per annum into the regional communities in which we operate.

Apart from providing a more reliable supply chain, shorter lead times and more flexibility, local manufacturing allows us to have more control over decisions that affect the environment. Local content, sustainability and creating local jobs are key pillars driving the Geofabrics business.

Three key products, Megaflo Green socked slotted drain pipe, Elcorock geotextile sand containers and Filterwrap Green non-woven geotextiles now carry the recognised Australian Made logo to inform customers they are locally produced, supporting local jobs.

We have been the recipient of various State and Federal Government grants and funding to increase manufacturing of innovative and sustainable products such as Bidim Green, Sorbseal and Megaflo Green.

Quality and traceability

Geofabrics manufactures in compliance with the Australian and International Quality Standards and are ISO 9001 assured. We operate two QA laboratories in Australia – Albury is NATA accredited, Ormeau GRID is GAI LAP accredited and products are tested frequently and transparently.

Contractual capacity

Supply of materials in a timely manner is critical for any project. Australian manufacture allows greater flexibility to adapt and change both the product quantities and scheduling in order to accommodate the clients’ requirements during the contract period.

Corporate Social Responsibility

We are compliant with the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018 and ensure our key suppliers also comply. Preventing and addressing modern slavery throughout the world is central to our unwavering commitment to running a safe, socially responsible and environmentally friendly business. We are committed to meeting and exceeding our obligations and ensuring our strong corporate and social responsibility.
