INDUSTRIAL FLOORING Super new look coloured Fibreglass safety stair nosing – What a Clever Idea
One of Floorsafe Australia’s strategies has always been to give the customer what he wants or what he would like to have. Fibreglass Plus now offer a slip resistant stair nosing that is fully compliant, chemical resistant and gives the customer an option to choose the finished colour which will certainly enhance any stairway.

Our Fibreglass nosing has been a very popular choice over the past two years due to the fact that it is half the price of standard aluminium and a saving of up to $20 a metre on most available metal tread nosings.
Although the standard fibreglass have a cost saving and no rust advantages, the finished fibreglass product has very limited chemical resistance and is only available in either yellow or black. So we have taken the advantages of both products and combining them into one competitively priced product that now has many features & benefits.
The new product ‘Fibreglass Plus’ has the same 4mm fibreglass base and produced in 3620mm lengths. Once moulded we have over laid the base with two layers of a 2-part Polyurethane chemical resistant coating. A 30# grade diamond aluminium oxide granule has also been added giving the new product a superior uniform finish. Colour choice is another advantage. Although available in stock colours, upon request any Australian standard colour can be produced. With Its extra strength, improved chemical resistance, colour choice & its improved enhanced finish is sure going to make this product very popular. Available in 3620mm lengths or supplied in required cut size lengths. Floorsafe Australia 1300 717 769 www.floorsafe.com.au

INDUSTRIAL CLEANING A tough and ready new identity for a ruggedly reliable Australian pressure cleaner
You’d be hard pressed to find a workshop, factory, farm or mine site in Australia that hasn’t been cleaned by a Spitwater pressure cleaner over the last 39 years.
The rare Australian manufacturing success story is on the verge of its 40th year but isn’t spending too much time reflecting on the past.
A series of innovations and new products coupled with a new visual identity and marketing campaign is keeping the ruggedly reliable Spitwater, and the teams that live and breathe the brand, fully focused.
Spitwater distributors in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney and dealers Australia-wide are proudly promoting a new look logo, colour scheme and brand promise on their buildings, vehicles and, indeed, the Spitwater pressure cleaners themselves.
“It’s been some decades since we’ve updated the brand. We are doing it now because we want to create a new and exciting future for the next generation,” says Prue Martinotti, General Manager of the Spitwater Australia factory in Albury, NSW.
The new branding is being launched with marketing campaigns celebrating the ‘Same rugged reliability. Brand new look and just how “Tough + Ready” a Spitwater is to do the dirty work.
Spitwater is an enduring manufacturing success story in Australia, where most competitor products are produced offshore and made with global markets in mind.
Spitwater’s Australian-ness is central to its values. Being an owner of a Spitwater is being a customer for life. Innovation suggestions are taken from customers, ensuring that the company builds resolutely to get the job done for Australian industry.
The factory that has been producing Spitwater high pressure cleaners since the 1980s is undergoing a rebrand too, with new signage already in place in Albury.
The factory brand and name going forward will be OTTICO Equipment, a blend of the founders’ family name ‘Martinotti’ and the word ‘company’, representing the innovative culture originally created by the Martinottis and continually shaped by the collaborators and contributors that have made Spitwater what it is today.
The new OTTICO Equipment name creates a distinct identity for the factory so it can broaden its product scope and develop its other brands, the likes of JETFIRE space heaters, VACSTORM vacuum cleaners and so on, whilst still innovating and improving the jewel in the crown, Spitwater.
OTTICO Equipment supplies major multinationals and has successful export partnerships with well-known brands worldwide. It is a significant employer for the district on the border of NSW and Victoria, with some team members dating back to its inception.
The entrepreneurial spirit that started it all has made an indelible mark on Australian manufacturing. This is a deep passion and purpose that persists through the next generation who are at the helm today.
Of pride is the number of small Australian family businesses built on the back of a Spitwater. Seeing the likes of roof cleaners and rural contractors start successful family enterprises using something originally created in Albury is particularly rewarding for everyone involved.
Even with the brand changes and innovations, the core of Spitwater remains unchanged. Same owners and the same teams, producing the same ruggedly reliable quality Australian manufactured products and solutions.

With the recent increased popularity of QR codes, Conquest have gone one step further in their promise to be behind you all the way.
By using a smart phone to scan the QR code located near the controls of each new machine, the operator is taken to an easy-to-use, web-based interface where they can navigate to the available support resources for that model.
Conquest QR has been developed in response to feedback from customers who value speed and efficiency, and the recognition that information has not always been readily available to operators when they need it most. For example requests for replacement operator manuals has been identified as a commonly asked question. Conquest QR solves this problem, making the manuals readily available from the Conquest QR interface, offering the option to download or view the relevant manual and daily maintenance chart.
Staff turnover is another commonly cited challenge, whereby new operators need training to use the equipment, safely and effectively. Conquest National Operations Manager, Tim Wakefield says “Often an operator might not receive sufficient training and handover – Conquest QR features training videos, demonstrating how to use and maintain the equipment. This information is all readily available, whenever it might be needed.”
It’s Conquest ambition to be behind their customers all the way, and Conquest QR is another step towards their vision. Tim explains, “We’ve got the resources available together in one place, right at the fingertips of operators when they are using the equipment.”
