Welcome to this special episode of @AuManufacturing Conversations with Brent Balinski, one which we're running as part of our quest to identify Australia’s 50 Most Innovative Manufacturers.
Australia’s 50 Most Innovative Manufacturers is a new campaign by @AuManufacturing. It has been made possible by the generous support of MYOB, SMC Corporation Australia, and Bosch Australia Manufacturing Solutions.

Rust tells us about innovation at a small (40 - 50 people) family-owned business and the benefits of an "open-door" approach, the importance of staying ahead of standards for the construction industry, and more.
