Capral Aluminium, Australia’s largest aluminium supplier, has been an essential supply chain partner to Austal for more than 25 years. The Austal #team have relied on Capral’s expertise and consistent quality to meet the stringent demands of both commercial and naval shipbuilding - supplying a variety of aluminium products, including both sheets and complex extrusions, many of which meet rigorous DNV certification standards. The reliability of these materials is critical to Austal’s ability to deliver high-quality vessels, on schedule. But Capral’s contribution goes beyond just materials. For Austal, Capral is a partner who understands the unique challenges of shipbuilding. As Brent Carey, Head of Strategic Supply Chain points out “It’s nice to have a supplier where we can share a vision, share values, they understand our needs, and we can build a mutual relationship that’s best for both parties.” With Capral’s support, Austal is well-positioned to continue an innovative shipbuilding approach and expand into new markets, including steel vessel construction. The successful partnership between Austal and Capral is highlighted in the article below, and in a new video demonstrating not only the capability of Australian manufacturing but the power of shared values and mutual respect, redefining what’s possible in shipbuilding.
