40th Anniversary Alloys International

It has been an exciting weekend for everyone at Alloys International and Avweld as we celebrated the 40th Anniversary of the founding of Alloys International.
On Saturday evening the celebrations encompassed a group of over 100 staff, family and friends for a cocktail party held at Oakwood Premier Hotel in Southbank. A great night of great food, fine wine, live music and entertainment with a photo booth, magician and charicaturist. Lucky door prizes including a 55″ Sony Bravia TV were gifted to 5 lucky winners.
As a special part of the evening we had a raffle for another 55″ Sony Bravia TV with the proceeds ($5,000) proudly going to the Royal Children’s Hospital to support the wonderful work they do there. This TV was generously donated by Alloys Computers, the company owned by my ex-partner and co-founder of Alloys International over 40 years ago.

Celebrating 40 Years of Service to Australian Industry

It only seems like yesterday that Mike Guttmann (my business partner at the time) and I sat in the loungeroom of his home on the first day of our new venture. That was our office for the first six months of the business because we couldn’t afford to spend money on rent. We drove all up and down the east coast together to save money on airfares. And yet we made progress, developed customers and the business and even made some money.

Over those 40 years the market, the technology and the products have changed enormously. But the philosophy on which we built the business remains the cornerstone of Alloys International (and Avweld!) today; Integrity, honesty, hard work, technical knowledge and customer service.

However, no business (and we are no exception) can be successful without the help and support of a wide range of people: its employees, customers and suppliers. Firstly, I have to sincerely thank our wonderful team in both Alloys and Avweld (past and present). Without the dedication, hard work, loyalty and support of our employees and their families, we would not be here.

Sincere appreciation also to our loyal and often long-standing customers and suppliers. Their support has allowed the business to grow and prosper over that whole 40 years to the position in which we find ourselves today!

I do not think that any business always finds things easy, and we are no exception, having had periods in our business life when it has been extremely tough. However, we continued to adapt and improve and I think most importantly we persevered and never gave up.

So the fact that after 40 years we are still here is an indication that we must have done something right along the way!

Finally, I’d like to acknowledge the support of my family, especially my wife Jenny. Through thick and thin she has been there to help me navigate the challenges and I could not have done it without her.

Once again my sincere thanks to all those who have contributed to our success. I look forward to seeing what the next 40 years will bring to us all.

Congratulations on your retirement

Our beloved co-worker of 35 years George Abraham is starting a new chapter in his life. No one is more deserving of a long and happy retirement filled with relaxation and enjoyment.

George has always been a hard worker and a terrific friend who always made every customer and co-worker a priority. He built a special bond with everyone he met by being keenly interested in their wellbeing and needs.

George, known for his infectious smile and joyful spirit, is the ‘guy’ who never has a bad word to say about anyone, is eternally positive and proactively goes about ‘doing the right thing’ by everyone.

We wish you the all the best and thank you for your many years of dedication, enthusiasm, team spirit and friendship.

YOU WILL BE MISSED 😊

Update from Alloys International

Alloys International would like to take this opportunity to give you an update on our operating situation with regards to the COVID-19 epidemic.

Our primary concern is the health and safety of all staff, customers, suppliers and their families. In constantly changing conditions, we continue to strive to meet our customers’ needs and delivery timeframes, in a safe and controlled manner. We are continually monitoring the advice of the State and Federal Governments, and the WHO.

Currently we are operating at full capacity. Our Melbourne, Perth and Mackay warehouses are available to dispatch stock as usual. Where possible, admin staff are working from home. All travel has been suspended unless absolutely required. Our sales engineers are available for local site visits, or consultation remotely. Our Queensland Sales Engineer Rob Cotter will be undergoing 14 days of isolation after returning from New Zealand, and available only by phone until the 3rd of April.

Our supply chains are currently uninterrupted, with all key products available as normal. Please be aware that due to the dramatic decrease in the Australian Dollar this year (~15% since January), we will have no choice but to pass along price rises on incoming goods. Please contact your sales representative with any questions.

Please Note: Our warehouses are operating on a reduced contact basis. There will be no admission without appointment, as we encourage people to contact us by phone where possible. Stock pickups will be possible whilst maintaining the 1.5m spacing recommended by the WHO.

We will keep you informed as the situation develops. Until then, please keep yourselves and your families and friends healthy and safe.

Phil Bond
Managing Director
