Over 67 years of dedication to meeting our customer’s changing needs through developing effective new product technology, supported by teams of industry specialists has enabled the company to grow and prosper as a unique Australian owned business.
In February 2007 Applied Australia was acquired by Illinois Tool Works (ITW) www.itw.com
