KAESER Australia is marking its 35th anniversary, stating that its ongoing role in the country’s manufacturing sector is linked to steady customer demand and its focus on supplying reliable compressed air systems.
In a statement, the company said the milestone reflects the decision by KAESER Kompressoren’s German headquarters in 1990 to establish an official subsidiary in Dandenong South to better service the Australian market.
According to KAESER Australia, its growth over the past three decades has been driven by a commitment to quality, customer support and reducing operational costs for businesses that depend on compressed air.
The company said its AIRCENTER SM13 compressor has become its most frequently supplied model, now used in settings ranging from small workshops to large manufacturers across the country.
Managing Director Jarno Manzke said the company’s development has been shaped by its workforce and long-term industry partnerships.
“Looking back at the past 35 years, what stands out most to me is the resilience and dedication of our team,” Manzke said.
“Our people are the heart of KAESER Australia. Their commitment, along with the trust of our regional Partners, has allowed us to extend our reach and provide the most efficient and reliable compressed air systems to even more Australian businesses.”
KAESER Australia also acknowledged the contribution of its longest-serving employees, noting that Mark Dudman, Craig Firth and Albin Hess have each served more than 30 years with the company.
The organisation said their tenure is an example of the stability and experience that has supported its expansion.
The company additionally pointed to its community involvement, citing annual sponsorships of fun runs and charity rides, along with staff fundraising and volunteering initiatives.
Environmental measures, including solar panel installation and electric vehicle charging stations at its facilities, were highlighted as part of its broader corporate responsibility efforts.
Looking ahead, KAESER Australia said it intends to continue developing its capabilities and supporting industrial operations, including those in manufacturing, with what it described as “world-class compressed air solutions.”
The company said its goal is to strengthen customer support, improve uptime and help reduce operating costs.
“To everyone who has been a part of our story; our staff, our customers, and our partners, thank you,” KAESER Australia said in its statement. “Here’s to the next 35 years of working together.”
