Safety equipment supplier strengthens Aussie presence
Troax, a Swedish leader in the design, manufacture and supply of protective fencing, machine guarding, warehouse protection and property storage systems, has established a strong position in the Australian market, following the development of its subsidiary, Troax Safety Systems, in October 2021. The company aims to grow this position through the development of local technical expertise and improved supply lead times. With the increasing focus on safety, security and productivity, the Troax range of innovative solutions are well positioned to support Australian industry needs in a variety of mining- and construction-related safety applications, as well as the growing sectors of E-commerce and automated warehouses, data centres, robotics and machine guarding.
Michael Standar, Regional Director (Asia-Pacific) of Troax, said the strong Australian culture around workplace health and safety aligns with the company’s corporate principles and goals. “As such it feels like a natural step for Troax to be developing a leading presence there,” Standar said.
“We are excited about the innovative products and solutions that Troax can bring to the Australian market. Developing world-class technical support and customer service to serve our existing and new clients will be our focus,” said Stephen Brock, Managing Director for Troax in Australia.
