Furphy Foundry has long been part of the fabric of Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley, and today it stands as one of Australia’s leading sustainable manufacturers of open space infrastructure products. From park benches and picnic settings to shelters, architectural lighting, and large-scale urban structures, the company’s work can be seen in communities across Australia and New Zealand.
What makes this story truly local is that every product begins its journey in the Goulburn Valley. The Foundry’s dedicated workforce, together with reliable regional suppliers, provides the production strength needed to deliver projects nationwide. This commitment not only sustains local jobs but also reinforces the region’s reputation as a hub of high-quality Australian manufacturing.
In recent years, Furphy Foundry’s expertise has also attracted the attention of international organisations. Partnerships with urbidermis for public architectural lighting, TOMRA for container deposit scheme kiosks, and Meridian for public defence barrier systems show just how far Shepparton-made products can reach, and the confidence global companies place in regional Australian manufacturing. As the Furphy Foundry continues to expand, one thing remains constant: pride in its people and its place. By building infrastructure that serves communities near and far, Furphy Foundry proves that world-class innovation and sustainability can thrive right here in regional Victoria. It’s a legacy of craftsmanship and vision, proudly made in Shepparton, and built for generations to come.
