The whole package with Protoblast
THE Protoblast story starts in 1974, when it was part of a large, well-known surface preparation and coating industry based in Sydney where John Gillies was a leading engineer.
Mr Gillies saw the potential and purchased the name and rights to the product and the company has been moving forward ever since.
Protoblast is now being guided by the third generation, with the same values and passion with which it was started.
All equipment is manufactured in-house in Picton, NSW, and supplied all through Australia, New Zealand and PNG, and the company has equipment operating in the USA and UAE.
It has established itself as a market leader in the abrasive blasting and surface preparation industry, as well as in the manufacture of abrasive blast chambers, abrasive recovery and recycling systems and customised airless blasting machines.
The Protoblast advantage comes from its end-to-end custom design and build ability.
The company can work with customers from the start through design, customisation, manufacturing, delivery, installation and maintenance.
The advantage doesn’t stop there, with the Protoblast system delivering the best return on investment through lower operating costs and superior reliability.
This lower operating cost and reliability is made possible through the use of the Protoblast Oscillating Conveyor and Bucket Elevator/Abrasive Classifier system.
In comparison to other abrasive recycling systems available, the Protoblast method delivers savings every day of operation.
For three generations, the company has been known for its ability to see customers’ need or issues, and come up with a solution that provides the best return on investment.
Protoblast machinery is designed and built to provide low cost operation for more than 20 years, with some of its original machines still on operation.
With Protoblast, clients get the whole package – from the personal service of a family-owned company, through to the maintenance and backup support of an industry leader.
Protoblast has built machines to blast many products such as building screws, surfboards, railway lines, structural steel, large carbon anodes for aluminium smelters, truck bodies, large curved plates and many more.
