Innotech Industrial Supplies was founded in 1986 as an importing agency with specific maintenance and repair products targeted principally at the mining industry. In 1989 Innotech was offered the national marketing rights for “Viva Board” manufactured in Thailand. This board was a wood chip and resin board in direct competition with Hardie’s products.

As a result of this Innotech Industrial Supplies embarked into a new venture by creating a new company, Innotech Building Systems, a manufacturer of kit and transportable homes based in Western Australia. Innotech Industrial Supplier retained 51% of the shares of Innotech Building Systems, the rest being taken by other individuals.

In 1992 Innotech Industrial Supplies developed polyethylene moulded septic tanks as a lightweight alternative to the heavy concrete tanks being used at that time by Innotech Building Systems and others. The success of these products led to a change of direction for Innotech Industrial Supplies whereby the 51% holding in Innotech Building Systems was sold to the other shareholders and Innotech Industrial Supplies concentrated on its core business.

Subsequently the growth in the moulded products side of the business superseded other agency lines resulting in the current status of the company, which is primarily aimed at trade and domestic waste and waste treatment products, utilising the light weight, durable and resilient characteristics of polyethylene as opposed to concrete products.
