Martin Engineering expands operations in Australia

By building a new manufacturing facility in Yatala on the East Coast and opening a fully staffed office in Perth on the West Coast, Martin is investing in, and adding jobs to, the Australian economy. Using a ‘factory direct’ sales, service, and equipment model, customers receive reliable product fulfillment, faster response times, and hands-on service from local experts.

Bo Hu, Australia Manager, Martin Engineering, said:

“Our purpose-built space has been designed to enhance our customer service, operational capabilities, and provide a better working environment for our team.

“This expansion ensures we continue delivering industry-leading solutions to our customers. We will now have full production capabilities in Australia of a wider range of products beyond our already established polyurethane parts production for cleaners and other wear parts.”

Yatala

The newly built facility in Yatala will house Martin Engineering Australia’s headquarters, in addition to 13 sales, production, and service team employees, allowing them a central hub to offer the best solutions and technical service to the market. Although the Yatala facility will be Australia’s primary manufacturing site, Perth will also have partial production capabilities.

Mr. Hu said:

“Our new manufacturing facility will produce bulk flow equipment and conveyor accessories. These include air cannons, customised conveyor transfer points, impact cradles that protect the belt during loading, belt support cradles and idlers that ensure a smooth belt path, skirting to mitigate dust and spillage in the transition, and innovative belt alignment devices.”

Perth

With a 14-person trained staff, a targeted manufacturing capability, and a large warehouse, the Perth branch focuses on service, maintenance, and solutions to new and existing customers. The MSTs specialise in bulk material flow on belt conveyors through belt cleaning, dust/spillage-free conveyor transfers, belt alignment, and mitigating hopper/chute clogging using efficient air cannon designs.

Mr. Hu said:

“After years of experience in the Australian market, Martin Engineering understands the everyday challenges for bulk handlers and mining operators in the varying climates and extreme environments the country has to offer.

“With these new spaces, Martin Engineering Australia is excited to embark on the next chapter of delivering excellence and innovation. Stay tuned as we continue to grow and invest in Australia’s mining landscape.”
