About Us
Tungsten Structures set out in July 2015 to create the most sustainable business model ever, one that creates a wealth of personal, professional, and financial opportunities for our loyal team and customers.
We have a legendary reputation for consistently providing the most efficient, reliable, and compliant structural steelwork designs on the market. And our customers swiftly realise that this is just the tip of the elegant iceberg that is the Tungsten Structures brand.
We are experts in all aspects of industrial structures, including ambient, cold-store, high-bay, food-processing, automated, and retail big-box facilities. Whether a structure has complexities such as fibre or post-tensioned reinforced slabs on ground, is supported on soft, reactive, or challenging ground, has gantry or jib cranes, or has wall panels that are full height, dado height, concrete tilt, or precast—we excel at them all.
We deliver wealth to our customers by simply and consistently doing the things that they expect of us, including the things that they tell us their other service consultants fail to do. We deliver wealth to our team members by giving back in equal measure that which they choose to put in.
Click below for a detailed itemisation of the specific wealth-creation opportunities that we provide to both our customers and the members of our team.
By The Numbers
We measure what matters and are passionate about setting goals then tracking and reporting them. We find it helps us focus on achieving exceptional results and maintaining a culture of continuous improvement.
Between 1 July 2015 and 30 June 2022.
