Taking on the Great Australian Bight

South Australia’s ambitious strides in the manufacturing and defence sectors are a testament to its innovative spirit and strategic foresight. The state’s government has launched a comprehensive Advanced Manufacturing Strategy, aiming to elevate the sector’s contribution to the economy and forge a global reputation for excellence.

This vision is supported by a significant $122 million Economic Recovery Fund, aimed at fostering innovation, boosting value-added exports, and enhancing employment within the state’s manufacturing landscape.

Additionally, South Australia’s manufacturing sector is poised to play a pivotal role on the global stage, with efforts to leverage its competitive advantages in renewable energy and hydrogen production. Initiatives focused on positioning the state as a hub for high-quality and sustainable products.

With a portfolio that highlights their extensive expertise and commitment to excellence, Allfasteners is at the forefront of supporting pivotal maritime projects that not only enhance infrastructure but also align with the state’s vision for innovation and sustainability.
