“Our vision is to inspire how communities design, build, and grow today and tomorrow. We are proud to support and grow local manufacturing capability, help create jobs, strengthen local industries and bolster their surrounding communities,” said John Arneil, President of James Hardie Asia-Pacific.

Australian Made Chief Executive Ben Lazzaro said, “Aussie products are made to some of the highest standards in the world. They are trusted and known for their safety and quality. There is a huge appetite out there for Australian products, with country of origin increasingly playing an important part in purchasing decisions.

Roy Morgan research found that 68% of Australians have a preference for Australian-made building and renovation materials products. When you buy Australian Made products, you are helping to employ thousands of Australians across all areas of the supply chain, strengthen local industries and support local communities.”
