Sydney, NSW — Access Industries, a key player in providing employment opportunities and services for people with disability, has expanded its warehousing capacity by 33% and increased its pallet-wrapping capabilities by 100%, a move that promises to benefit customers through larger jobs and faster turnaround times. This latest expansion builds on last year’s significant $500,000 investment in production capacity, highlighting Access Industries’ commitment to growth and innovation in its logistics and production facilities.
The increased warehousing capacity will allow Access Industries to store and manage more inventory, supporting a broader range of customer needs. This expanded space also enables the organisation to streamline its logistics process, accommodating a greater volume of goods and making it easier to scale up operations in response to client demand. With the added pallet-wrapping capabilities, Access Industries can now wrap and dispatch products more swiftly, ensuring secure, efficient deliveries with reduced lead times.
In addition to expanding warehousing and wrapping capacity, the organisation’s facilities have been upgraded to handle 40-foot containers on trucks, a capability that opens doors to larger clients and more complex logistics projects. By accommodating these high-volume shipments, Access Industries can attract clients in need of bulk storage and distribution, further solidifying its position as a key logistics partner in the region.
“Expanding our warehousing and pallet-wrapping capacity not only strengthens our operational capabilities but also aligns with our mission to provide inclusive employment opportunities,” said Peter Vella, General Manager Packaging. “With this infrastructure in place, we’re well-positioned to support larger clients and handle more extensive projects, all while delivering quality and efficiency that our customers expect.”
The $500,000 investment in production capacity last year laid the groundwork for these recent enhancements, enabling Access Industries to streamline its processes and improve output. The recent upgrades are expected to have a ripple effect across its operations, allowing the organisation to optimise workflow, reduce delays, and improve overall service quality for both new and existing customers.
As Access Industries celebrates its 75th anniversary, this expansion is a testament to its enduring dedication to innovation, quality service, and inclusive employment. By continuously investing in its facilities and workforce, Access Industries is not only meeting the demands of a competitive logistics sector but is also making a positive impact in the community.
With these advancements, Access Industries is positioned to remain a reliable, socially responsible partner for businesses, supporting their logistics needs with capacity, speed, and a commitment to community values.
