LOGOS has today announced it is developing a purpose built circa 16,000sqm warehouse and office facility for Orrcon Steel at its Marsden Park Logistics Estate in western Sydney.
As a leading Australian manufacturer and distributor of steel, tube and pipe products and wholly owned subsidiary of BlueScope, Orrcon Steel has committed to a long term lease on the facility plus circa 2,200sqm of expansion space.
Orrcon Steel’s parent company BlueScope recognise their social responsibility to reduce their environmental impact.
“Caring for the environment is the cornerstone statement in our bond, which guides the decisions we make at BlueScope each day,” BlueScope CEO Mark Vassella said.
This is further evidenced by BlueScope holding both the WorldSteel Climate Action Program certificate and the ‘ISO14001 Environmental Management System’ certificate.
When Richard Whipp owner of Wip Construction was first notified that he had won the Upgrade Your Work Life Balance monthly prize he thought it was a practical joke.
“Once it had sunk in of course it made me feel very lucky,” he said.
As the May winner of Orrcon Steel and Metalcorp’s Upgrade Your Work Life Balance promotion, Mr Whipp was given the choice of five monthly prizes, valued at up to $1,500.
He chose the DJI Mavic Pro Drone, which he intends to use for both business and recreational purposes.
When it comes to manufacturing furniture for the education sector Woods Furniture top the class.
Providing classroom seating, security lockers and student desks for around 3,500 schools around Australia, Woods Furniture has been creating flexible learning environments since 1953.
A long-term customer of Orrcon Steel, the Victorian based business sources a variety of steel sections from the Orrcon Steel Westall Distribution Centre.
Woods Furniture Director Tony Rogers said, “Working with Orrcon Steel allows us to develop our own steel profiles easily.
Travis Sayers, owner of TJ Sheds has been a customer of Orrcon Steel for over five years.
Recently he became April’s monthly winner of the Upgrade Your Work Life Balance promotion, taking home an iPad Pro with Pen, which was valued at $1400.
“I have a keen interest in astrophotography and the iPad will allow me to remotely control my telescope. This will assist with my exploration, making my time away from work even more enjoyable,” he said.
When it comes to manufacturing Australian made gym equipment, Roysen Engineering and Australian Barbell Company are doing the heavy lifting.
Roysen Engineering has been a loyal customer of Orrcon Steel for many years and manufactures a vast range of premium quality fitness gym equipment for its sister business, Australian Barbell Company.
Australian Barbell Company is a main player for some of Australia’s most elite sporting teams.
Geelong Farmer Geoff Rees was “stoked” he bought some Australian made Cattleyards last month.
It was a day just like any other for the busy farmer. “I was in a hurry and went into Metalcorp to pick up some Cattleyards.
I entered the competition and never thought too much about it,” he said.
A month later Geoff Rees’ name was drawn from random in the national promotion and he had become the first monthly prize winner.
Metalcorp and Orrcon Steel are advocating for a greater work life balance within the rural and manufacturing sectors.
In their latest promotion ‘Upgrade Your Work Life Balance,’ customers have the chance to win thousands of dollars of prizes.
There are three options for the grand prize and they are all valued at $10,000 each.
These options include a Quintrex Tinny, a $10,000 travel voucher, or a Cross Fire UTV.
The grand prize will be drawn during the end of June and the winner will then have the opportunity to choose how they upgrade their work life balance.
Discovery Horse Floats (DHF) aren’t a one trick pony when it comes to manufacturing custom-built horse trailers.
Using quality Australian made Orrcon Steel, DHF work closely with leading race trainers, equine professionals and equestrian riders.
Owner Jeff Figgins says DHF takes pride in the fundamental values of safety first and premium quality.
“Working with Australian steel allows us to pioneer leading edge options such as adjustable horse bay tracking systems, taller interior heights for heavier horses and up front living concepts,” he said.
