OUR HISTORY
Over the next six years the Company’s reputation and business grew to such an extent that we had to look for larger premises. New premises were located two kilometres away in Leather Street and within three years we had purchased the adjoining factory to house the wall framing section. A few years later the corner block was purchased as a storage yard and in 1995 a third factory was built to house the most advanced fully computerised, automated saw available in Australia. An advanced multi-head auto plate feed jig was also introduced. Some $695,000 was invested to assure quality of products at a cost effective price.
In 1996 Longreach Floor Trusses were introduced with astounding results. M.B. saw a need to develop the wall framing division and to keep up with technology. In 2000 M.B. Pre-Fab set up in a purpose built factory across the road with the first fully computerised wall framing division of its kind in Australia, assuring that quality controls are met and prices remained competitive.
During 2004-05 MB Pre-Fab built two new factories approximately 50 metres x 36 metres. One houses the truss manufacturing division and the other wall manufacturing. The wall frame division was relocated to the new wall factory so that the whole business was operated from the one site. East of the offices a new timber shed has been completed.
In 2010 our Estimating and Designing area was extended along with the addition of a training room. The latest Hundegger saw was purchased for the factory to ensure cutting accuracy and to meet our production requirements.
Although situated in Geelong, MB Pre-Fab delivers throughout Melbourne, Central Victoria, North Eastern Victoria and have delivered to the Blue Mountains region, Batemans Bay and some 20 km's past Adelaide.
