MADE RIGHT HERE, FOR RIGHT HERE
Australian Made Week (18–24 May) celebrates a simple idea: ‘Made Right Here’. For Civiq, it’s not just a campaign, it’s how they work every day. Every Aquafil station is designed, made, and supported locally. The Civiq NSW site has proudly played a role in this story for decades.
Aquafil started with a classic Aussie approach: spot a local need and solve it. The journey began with wayfinding and transport signage, then evolved into hydration stations by adapting those designs with practical, smart additions like taps. That spark of Australian ingenuity grew into the Aquafil range you see in schools, parks, transport hubs, and public spaces all over Australia. Local thinking still shapes everything Civiq builds.
BUILT FOR AUSTRALIAN CONDITIONS
Aquafil stations are built for real Australian conditions: salty coastal air, harsh UV, summer heat, temperature swings, busy school breaks and parks buzzing with families on a Saturday morning. You won’t find that know-how in a catalogue. It comes from designing and making products here for decades, for the communities who use them every day.
Civiq designs and builds its range in Sydney, using locally sourced materials where practically possible. It matters when public infrastructure needs to keep working, day in and day out.
Need a replacement part? Local manufacturing means faster fixes. Need help with maintenance? You’re talking to a local supplier in your time zone. When schools or councils order a unit, the supply chain starts and ends right here. Planning gets easier. Delivery gets more reliable. Support gets faster.
THE AUSTRALIAN MADE LOGO MEANS SOMETHING
The green and gold kangaroo on Aquafil stations means something. The Australian Made logo is a registered certification trademark, and Civiq is listed as a certified licensee. That gives schools, councils and architects confidence that the product has been independently verified as Australian Made.
BACKING LOCAL, THE RIGHT WAY
For Civiq, Australian Made is about more than just the product, it’s about how they do the work. The team source materials and supplies locally where practically possible, and they do not source from anyone or any organisation that uses slavery-based labour supply. It is part of what sits behind every Aquafil station.
Every Aquafil station supports Aussie jobs in design, manufacturing, logistics and service. It keeps local skills sharp, expertise close, and means the products Australians rely on are made by people who know exactly where they’ll be used.
This Australian Made Week, Civiq are proud to stand behind what they build every single day.
