Why Australia Made?

What it means

For a product to claim to be “Made in Australia”, “Australian Made” or “Manufactured in Australia”, Australian Consumer Law effectively states that the good must have undergone ‘substantial transformation’ within Australia.

A good has been ‘substantially transformed’ if:
Australia was the country of origin of each significant ingredient or significant component of the good; and all, or virtually all, processes involved in the production or manufacture of the good happened in Australia; or
As a result of one or more processes undertaken in Australia, the good is fundamentally different in identity, nature, or essential character from all of its ingredients or components that were imported into Australia.

It’s simply not enough, either morally or legally, to import Water Treatment Plants from China and stuck an “Aussie Proud” sticker on them after you make slight modifications (generally for faulty or sub-standard overseas workmanship).

Higher Standards

Australian-made products are manufactured to very high standards and are typically of a much higher quality when compared to imported products. In addition to manufacturing standards, the manufacturing environment must comply with Australian health and safety, environmental and labour laws.

As a result, Australian products are manufactured up to a standard, not down to a price, and Australia has a deserved reputation for producing some of the highest quality products in the world.
Manufacturing in Australia is subject to strict environmental protection policies, so buying Australian-made products will typically mean lower energy consumption, more recycling and lower greenhouse gas emissions than imported products. Australian law ensures that Australian-made products come with guarantees and warranties that protect the consumer. This might not be the case with imported products where customer service and warranty claims can be much more difficult and unsatisfactory.

Prosperity

The growth of offshore manufacturing and increasing purchase of imported products has resulted in a steady decline in domestic manufacturing and skilled workers.
Buying Australian-made products is critical to the economic development and prosperity of the nation as it creates local jobs, boosts the economy, and supports the local community.

Every manufacturing job created in Australia results in the creation of another four jobs in the local community.
Strong Australian businesses contribute to the national economy through tax revenue, reduced welfare costs and increased wellbeing. A booming economy encourages government spending on infrastructure and services that provides a foundation for future growth and prosperity.

Industries

Our Business

Australian Water Technologies was established to service the growing requirement for a high quality Australian built wastewater equipment provider to the mining, winery/brewery, agriculture and tourism industries.
Our company provides a range of design and manufacturing services for wastewater treatment ranging from sewage treatment to highly complicated heavy mineral removal.
Over the years we have become an industry leader in solving difficult water related issue with an extremely cost-effective range of solutions. This has led us to reach out overseas (mainly Europe) to collaborate with some of the world’s largest technology providers in water treatment, developing and improving this technology for Australia’s market.
Every clients project is assessed and analysed so as to customise a solution that best suits their individual requirements, rather than a system bought from overseas that is just “thrown in place”. We value quality and cost effectiveness.
At Australian Water Technologies, we are a family rather than a workforce, and we treat all of our future partners and clients as new family members.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Australian Water Tech family…Who knows you may get an invite to the annual golf tournament!

Cheers
Scott.
