Australian Made: Supporting Local Industry & Innovation

At ShawX Manufacturing, being Australian Made is more than just a logo on our products — it represents our commitment to quality, innovation, local jobs, and supporting Australian industry.
As we celebrate Australian Made Week, we are proud to manufacture our revolutionary EjectX truck body range right here in Australia, designed specifically for Australian conditions and industries.
Australian Made Week is a reminder of the importance of backing local manufacturers who invest in Australian workers, Australian businesses, and the future of Australian industry. For companies like ShawX, manufacturing locally means we maintain control over quality, safety, and innovation while supporting the communities and industries that keep Australia moving.

What Does “Australian Made” Actually Mean?

To carry the iconic Australian Made logo, products must meet strict criteria under the Australian Made Campaign. It is a trusted symbol that helps consumers and businesses identify genuine Australian products and manufacturers.

In manufacturing, this matters.

When businesses choose Australian Made products, they are choosing products built to suit local standards, local environments, and local industries. They are also supporting Australian jobs, skills development, supply chains, and manufacturing capability.

Built for Australian Conditions & Industries

At ShawX, our EjectX truck bodies are engineered and manufactured in Australia to meet the demands of Australian transport, civil construction, infrastructure, waste, and mining industries. We understand the harsh operating conditions Australian fleets face because we work directly with the industries and operators using our equipment every day.

Driving Innovation Through Local Manufacturing

Manufacturing locally also allows us to continuously improve and innovate. The EjectX body was developed to improve safety, efficiency, and productivity in material handling while reducing rollover risks commonly associated with traditional tipping bodies. By designing and building in Australia, we can adapt and respond quickly to industry needs and customer feedback.

The Importance of Australian Supply Chains

Australian manufacturing is also critical for supply chain reliability. In recent years, many industries have experienced delays and uncertainty with imported products and overseas supply chains. Supporting Australian manufacturers helps strengthen local capability and ensures businesses have access to reliable products, service, and support when they need it most.
For us, being Australian Made also reflects pride in craftsmanship and accountability. Every truck body we manufacture represents the hard work, skill, and dedication of our team. It represents Australian engineering and innovation at its best.

Supporting the Future of Australian Manufacturing

As Australian Made Week highlights the importance of supporting local industry, we encourage businesses across transport, construction, government, and infrastructure sectors to consider the impact of buying Australian Made products. Supporting local manufacturing helps create jobs, strengthens the economy, and ensures Australia continues to build world-class products for generations to come.
From all of us at ShawX, thank you to our customers, suppliers, and industry partners who continue to support Australian manufacturing.
Together, we are helping build a stronger Australian industry.
