Our office is closed, but we’re still working
Following developments in Australia’s COVID-19 response, we have decided to close our Pymble office until further notice. The safety and wellbeing of our staff and their families along with our members, clients and communities is our first priority.
The office is closed, but we will continue to work tirelessly to support the welding industry in Australia. Now more than ever our community spirit is vital, and we encourage you to reach out to one of us if you have any questions or an area where you are needing support, or even if you just need a chat.
Our staff are working remotely and will be available through their mobile numbers and email addresses. You can still contact Weld Australia on 02 8748 0100 or office@weldaustralia.com.au
Keep well, stay safe, and we look forward to seeing you again in the future.
Welding is an art; skill; trade; engineering discipline; and science.
It is an enabling technology used across a wide range of industries and applications, from micro-joining of medical devices, electronics and photonics to larger scale applications such as mining equipment, pressure vessels, ships, rail transport, water pipelines and components.
The technology of bonding materials is essential to the economic growth of Australia.
