                                                Why Fibre King
We’ve been manufacturing solutions for nearly 100 years, why? Because at our core we believe that production facilities should be efficient, smart and cost effective and we are passionate about creating solutions that support this.
As a fourth-generation family business founded in 1926, we have spent decades designing,
manufacturing and maintaining the highest quality end of line packaging equipment for production facilities of all sizes globally. Since offering Australia’s first locally designed and manufactured packaging equipment in 1950 to having a complete range of end line packaging machinery that includes robotics and Industry 4.0 capabilities we have never looked back.
