Marsh celebrates 70 years of manufacturing in Australia as it adds Mastercut to the Alliance

Adam Forrester

Founder Thomas Marsh commenced spring making from humble beginnings in Brisbane’s southern suburb of Macgregor in 1953.  Since that time Thomas Marsh & Co (now trading as Marsh Alliance) has grown to become one of Australia’s most trusted names in spring and wire product manufacturing.

In recent years under the directorship of Thomas’ son Greg and the leadership of CEO Adam Forrester, the humble beginnings in Macgregor have evolved into a large, modern production facility in Carole Park, Queensland, that proudly features a carbon neutralising 300kW solar farm powering its factory.  A series of business acquisitions over the last 13 years have enabled Marsh to increase weekly production capacity to over 120Ts of finished products and build significant inhouse capability in cold coiling, CNC wire forming, pressed parts and speciality coatings.

Marsh Alliance is the major supplier of garage door springs in Australia today, and thousands of other Marsh products are made for: door and security solutions, building fixtures, electrical distribution networks, automotive and agricultural components, heavy transport and infrastructure, medical aids, defence applications… the list goes on!
