Founded in 1975 on principles of reliability, integrity and durability, the company has earned a reputation for structures that last.
Every Central Steel Build project is tailored to its environment, operational needs and long term goals.
From machinery and fodder storage to dairy facilities, livestock housing and bulk storage, each is designed for smarter, more efficient operation.
Chief executive John Wetzler notes how demand has shifted dramatically in recent years.
“In the past decade, we’ve seen farmers look beyond a simple shed,” he said.
“They want infrastructure that addresses ventilation, animal welfare, workflow and compliance.
“The focus is on smarter, more capable buildings that improve daily operations.”
Central’s site-specific engineered structures use 100 per cent Australian steel and are hot-dip galvanised for outstanding corrosion resistance.
Every fabricated steel member is galvanised, including recesses, sharp corners and hard-to-reach places, providing a steel structure that is an investment for future generations.
That strength was proven during Cyclone Alfred in 2025, when a Central-built machinery shed for NSW macadamia grower Tony Flick remained completely undamaged while others nearby were destroyed.
“It was the one thing left standing, completely undamaged,” Mr Flick said.
“It’s a true testament to the quality and craftsmanship.”
The second-generation, family-owned business works closely with clients from planning to installation, ensuring every detail supports functionality, durability and safety.
Clients include Elders, Haeusler’s, Bunnings, RLX, Mitre 10, Bridgestone and Powercor. With 70 per cent of new projects coming from repeat customers or referrals, Central remains a trusted partner nationwide.
