Weldlok® Industries Opens New Victorian Warehouse Complex

Leading Australian industrial products manufacturer, Weldlok Industries, has unveiled its new, multi-million dollar warehouse complex in Melbourne - with a promise to customers of even more stock on hand and faster order turnarounds.

Located at Derrimut, a key industrial and distribution hub in the city's western suburbs, the new warehouse is ideally placed to serve customers and distributors across metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia.

The expansion of capacity has enabled the company to increase stock holdings of its most popular products and add in new product lines to further reduce lead times. "We've developed, with customer input, a tailored range of special and standard products that will be readily available, including hand-railing, gratings, stair tread and expanded metal products," say Weldlok's Victorian State Manager, James Lo Giudice, and the Group's Commercial Manager, Chari Martin.
"This means faster pick-up times and better turnaround on orders."

In addition to carrying bigger stocks of its most popular products, the new warehouse will also carry a wider range of niche products from the extensive Weldlok range.

James says the facility also has the capacity to accommodate a move into specialised metal fabrication - something the company is considering for the future.

Weldlok Industries is a Division of the Graham Group, Australia's leading supplier of high quality gratings, hand railing, lintels, expanded metal, perforated metal, galvanizing services and related steel, fibreglass and aluminium products.

Miles Fuller, CEO of Graham Group's parent company, the Nepean Group, says the investment in Victoria is both a vote of confidence and a thank-you to loyal customers.

"Our growing Victorian customer base has contributed to making Weldlok one of the major players in the industrial products industry in Australia," he says.

"We wanted to repay their faith by ensuring the performance of our products continues to be matched by outstanding customer service and support."
