At NEACH, we’re always looking for practical ways to improve how we operate and moving our project managers’ fleet to Tesla was a decision backed by both logic and values.

I recently attended Australian Manufacturing Week (AMW) in Melbourne, and what struck me most was the sheer number of suppliers now showcasing laser systems front and centre. Just three or four years ago, these machines were the domain of early adopters, technically impressive but commercially unviable for the broader market. This year, the shift was clear.

At NEACH, sustainability isn’t an afterthought, it’s embedded into the way we operate, from the ground up.

After years of working closely with Tier 1 contractors across Queensland, I've learned something crucial: the game has changed.
Certainly, cost will always be a key consideration. But it's no longer the make-or-break factor it once was. What Tier 1 clients are truly after now is something far more valuable: certainty.

As NEACH celebrates 50 years in business, we’re proud to have our story featured in Noosa News.

In this month’s edition of The Tradie, NEACH takes centre stage in a full-page feature that looks at the big picture and the real work behind it.

We’re proud to be featured in the latest edition of WELD AU, the official magazine of Weld Australia, which highlights leaders, innovators, and projects shaping the future of welding and fabrication across the country.

What began in 1975 as a small family business run from a panel van has grown into a trusted structural steel partner for some of Queensland’s most complex and high-profile infrastructure projects. From early community builds to major defence, transport and commercial works, our legacy is written in steel and grounded in purpose.

The phrase “sovereign capability” has become increasingly prominent across boardrooms, government policies, and industry conferences, especially in discussions around manufacturing and infrastructure.

At NEACH, we've taken a proactive approach to addressing one of our industry's biggest challenges: the growing shortage of skilled welders. Rather than simply competing for the limited talent available, we decided to create our own solution. Here's how our apprenticeship programme is helping us build not just skilled welders, but a stronger company culture.

At NEACH, we're passionate about nurturing the next generation of engineering talent. This year, we're proud to announce our Silver Sponsorship of the QUT Civil Engineering Student Society (CESS), a partnership to bridge the critical gap between academic learning and professional practice.

Double eye protection is more than a rule; it reflects our values. At NEACH, we prioritise the health and well-being of our team because we believe that safety is the foundation of excellence. By taking these extra steps, we ensure every project is completed to the highest standards and with the utmost care for those who make it happen.

Safety isn’t just a priority—it’s part of our DNA. Every process we use, every tool we create, and every innovation we implement is driven by one goal: to ensure our team goes home safely every day. Here’s how we turned a thumb-smashing incident into a story of safety innovation.

We are thrilled to announce that NEACH has been named runner-up in not one but two prestigious categories at this year’s Weld Australia Queensland Excellence Awards.

We’re thrilled to be recognised for our work on the Cross River Rail Exhibition Station upgrade, a landmark project that demonstrates our commitment to quality, safety, and innovation in steel fabrication. Recently the Australian Institute Of Steel awarded NEACH a ‘Highly Commended Engineering Project’ in the annual ASI awards.

Safety and compliance are at the core of everything we do. With over 50 years of experience in the steel fabrication industry, we have developed a comprehensive approach to ensure that every project meets the highest safety standards. From ISO certifications to advanced technologies and a culture of continuous improvement

At NEACH, we are proud to be TMR pre-qualified, a certification required by Queensland’s Transport and Main Roads (TMR) for completing structural steelwork on infrastructure projects.

At NEACH, we believe in fostering a strong sense of community and open communication among our team. Our monthly TOOLBOX meeting is a key part of this initiative, bringing together staff from the office, admin, and workshop to share updates, celebrate achievements, and discuss important topics.

NEACH fabricated, supplied and installed numerous steel structures for the project, including the main platform canopy and structure supports, lift shafts, structural framing, balustrades and screening.
