MICROFACTORIES AUSTRALIA

MICROFACTORIES AUSTRALIA (MFA) has been established to help Australian SME manufacturers transition from expensive and ecologically wasteful current state mass manufacturing to a more sustainable and cost-efficient future state in-demand manufacturing. We PLAN, DESIGN, PROJECT MANAGE AND CONSTRUCT bespoke urban manufacturing facilities — what we call, MICROFACTORIES. These are small-scale, highly automated facilities with a low environmental footprint that contribute positively to their community: increasing local employment and engagement and supporting Australian manufacturing like never before. MFA delivers small floorplate, multi-use, manufacturing bases for SMEs engaged in the SPACE, DEFENCE, HEALTHCARE, RESOURCES, WASTE MANAGEMENT & CLEAN ENERGY sectors. Our designs are bespoke. Collaboratively developed and tailored for individual clients. They're also flexible and adaptable: providing SMEs with a manufacturing agility like never before and allowing likeminded companies to pool talents and resources to grow their capacity and capabilities. MFA provides the perfect base from which to grow and expand Australia's smart industry capacity and automated manufacturing capability. Our approach sees us address a substantial gap in the market and help SMEs across our target sectors not only grow their business but also expand their market presence through having as their base a future-proofed facility that is digital ready now.
