This year, Australian Made licensee REDARC Electronics won the Manufacturing and Advanced Materials award. Presented by Australian Made Chief Executive Ben Lazzaro, the award recognises outstanding international success in manufacturing, engineering and advanced materials development.

REDARC’s CEO and Managing Director, Anthony Kittel, said manufacturing high-quality power solutions locally was key to its success. “Being recognised through the Australian Export Awards is a huge boost to the advanced manufacturing sector,” said Kittel. “We believe our Australian heritage is a point of competitive advantage and premium quality in an increasingly commoditised global economy.”
