 Warialda Engineering & Welding Pty
Ltd commenced trading in 1996 and had its humble beginnings in
the garage of its owner Mick Davis. After hearing many stories
about farm accidents, Mick set his sights on inventing a cost
effective agricultural implement that would not only deliver
safer working practices but also save the user considerable time
and energy. The end result was the DAVIS STARLIFTER a dual
purpose tool that has literally revolutionized the way people
work with logs and steel pickets.
With no financial backing, Mick began producing ten to twenty
units a month from his garage and was responsible for every
aspect of the business development (manufacturing, marketing and
distribution). Slowly, through advertising and attending
Agricultural field days, the Company grew. This impressive
growth was due to the business having been built on the old
fashion values of honesty, integrity and professionalism.
Today, Warialda Engineering & Welding, (located in the
township of Warialda in North West New South Wales), employs a
cohesive team of 11 staff and 4 sale representatives. This team
shares the owner’s passion, enthusiasm and drive. They take
pride in their workmanship and aim to ensure that every product
leaving the premises meets the owner’s high standards. The
company has become renowned for their innovative farm products,
workmanship and customer service levels. Whether you are a local
farmer or a large company you will always get the same friendly
service from staff that put customer satisfaction first.
From humble begins the company has grown into a leading
regional business delivering a range of products and services
that include designing, repairing, aluminum, stainless steel,
sheet metal fabrication and steel products for the agricultural
and related industries. They also produce quality, custom made
trailers that are quickly gaining a reputation for being
innovative, practical and reliable.
