OGA and Forel to Co-Sponsor AusFenex16
“ If you’ re aiming to expand your business, it’ s crucial to stay informed about the latest technologies and market trends,” says Neil Searle, Managing Director, Overseas Glass Agencies Pty Ltd( OGA).
Established in Melbourne over four decades ago, OGA is widely recognised as a specialist supplier of European glass processing machinery, spare parts and service to the Australian and New Zealand glass and window industries. OGA may be a new member to the AWA, but are well established within the industry. Whilst the quality and reliability of the products supplied by the manufacturers represented by OGA is renown, it is OGA’ s knowledge and experience that has firmly established their position within the industry. Neil is excited about the opportunities ahead for those in both the glass and window industries, and is looking forward to working closely with many that are presently expanding their operations and investing in new technologies.
“ Local manufacturing brings with it many challenges. We’ re in an increasingly competitive and diverse market, which is more regulated than ever before,” says Neil.“ We thoroughly enjoy working closely with progressive businesses that move with
the times, offering solutions and systems to improve their operating efficiencies, responding to market trends and expanding their product offerings. Our expert team can advise every sized business- be it taking the very first step to cutting and processing glass, through to fully automated worldclass glass processing and IGU production systems. We are a conservative company, and would always suggest that growth and investment is well researched and tailored to best meet your individual needs,” said Neil.
The range of machinery provided by OGA encompasses glass storage, loading, cutting and edging systems, as well as CNC processing, tempering, laminating, and IGU manufacturing systems. In representing some of the world ' s leading manufacturers, including Forel, Forvet, Lattuada, Neptun, Mistrello, and Macotec, OGA’ s experienced team can offer professional advice and after sales service in all areas of flat glass processing.
