As the arrival of 2025 came and passed, E-Max wasn’t wasting any time.
The business, renowned for its Air-Weigh weighing systems as well heavy transport wiring harness solutions and electrical components and ancillaries, has been working hard over the last couple of months to see its latest expansion come to fruition which is now in full effect.
In a move to boost productivity and efficiency business-wide, E-Max has built and relocated into a new facility in Scoresby, Victoria.
Just 10 minutes down the road from its Ferntree Gully site, the new location has resulted in a plethora of added benefits. But most importantly, it’s given E-Max the confidence it needs for the long-term.
“It came out of a need to expand our business,” says E-Max Head of Sales and Operations, Ben Harris. “As the business grew in Ferntree Gully, we added more work areas and tried to fill every corner of the facility where we could. But, with growing demand and more employees, it just got to the point where we were out of space.
“We were at capacity at the previous facility so we secured the new site which is double its size.”
E-Max considered every possible aspect while designing and developing the facility in order to maximise productivity and efficiency business-wide. Following the launch, this seems to have gone to plan.
“We’re pretty excited about the opportunity to move into a new facility that we were able to plan and set up from scratch exactly how we wanted it,” Ben says. “It was really about setting ourselves up to not only support the current demand but our future growth as well.
“The larger facility gives us opportunities to improve our processes and increase our output and efficiencies as we grow. That’s the key – having the appropriate space that we require to support our demand now and into the future.”
As E-Max advances into the rest of 2025 with the new location and an enhanced outlook, Ben says there are plenty of plans ahead.
“We’re continuously developing new solutions,” he says. “We’re very much a solutions business but we’re also an Australian manufacturer, which we’re very proud of.
“Our advantage here is that we can really tailor solutions to meet customers’ individual needs. Everything is designed and manufactured in-house in terms of our wiring solutions.”
What will remain the same is the dedication and commitment to excellence which have worked in E-Max’s favour for almost three decades.
“We’ll continue to innovate and source the best components from OEMs around the world,” Ben says. “We don’t compromise on quality, so we’re very focused on providing the best solutions to the market.
“It’s an exciting time. We’ve got a lot of product development happening and this new location really gives us the opportunity to be able to support that into the future. So, we’ll continue to invest into the business and the right people, and the fact that we’re able to move into a new facility that’s double the size shows our commitment to the industry and the investments we’re doing.”
