History
The Brownbuilt reputation goes back to 1885 when founder, Mr E.T. Brown, opened a factory specialising in boot tanning and printing machinery.
Thirty years later, having been a distributor of imported office furniture, the Brownbuilt Steel Equipment Company was set up to manufacture and sell locally produced high quality steel equipment for offices, stores and factories.
The company continued to evolve, pioneering the use of die-formed steel equipment, spot welders, pre-painted steel coil and the cold roll-forming process in Australia.
