Who we are

Manufacturing is essential to WA’s economic and social future, but we need more than short-term fixes and policy statements. We need people who understand the work, care about the outcomes, and are willing to build something better from the ground up.

From the shop floor to the design studio, we know that progress comes from shared effort and open collaboration. This organisation is driven by volunteers who are passionate about building a future where local manufacturing thrives and people at every level are part of the conversation.

We’re volunteer-run, with a shared belief in action over talk. Meet the committee members who are helping make it happen.

Our plan

Stronger manufacturing starts with stronger connections.

We’re committed to running regular events where everyone in the industry, no matter their role or experience, can contribute, learn, and be heard.

By sharing ideas and working together, we’ll create a pipeline of practical actions aimed at strengthening WA manufacturing from the ground up.

We are not-for-profit, politically neutral, and work to support the manufacturing industry as a whole, not a specific membership constituency.
