Austeng has helped develop RenewOak’s process of rejuvenating wine barrels that ordinarily would be discarded after four or five years. The RenewOak process uses an abrasive slurry to “sand” internal surfaces without dismantling the barrel. The chemical free process removes all barrel residues along with a fine layer of oak, leaving a clean finish ready […]
Austeng is one of the successful recipients of a grant pursuant to the State Government’s Hydrogen Business Ready Fund, setting us up to play a lead role in showing how renewable hydrogen can reduce the environmental impact of the cremation process, via a feasibility study and a prototype demonstration model. It is hoped that ultimately […]

MONASH UNIVERSITY – IMPACT TESTING FACILITY
Recent Projects, Tech EnablerWe are proud to have been involved as a key project partner in Monash University’s world leading impact testing equipment. Austeng engineered, manufactured and installed the state of the art Impact Testing Facility in line with the University’s stringent requirements. The research facility unveiled in December 2020 is designed to observe the behaviour of elements […]
Fibre-Reinforced Geopolymer Bridges
Architecture, Recent Projects, Sustainability ProjectsGFR GEOPOLYMERS BRIDGES ARE HERE! It was certainly well worth the wait – the glass fibre reinforced geopolymer bridges (100 years plus maintenance free) have arrived! Great collaboration with Rocla Australia, City of Greater Geelong, Deakin University and Inconmat. These bridges deliver not only huge environmental benefits but also many the novel combined materials used […]
Creating Premium Products From Wine Industry Waste
Industry, Recent ProjectsAusteng is pleased to be part of Viridi Innovation’s commercialisation journey to take their technology transforming grape marc and seed (leftover from the wine production process) and transform them into grape seed extract, a highly sought after ingredient in the Australian nutraceutical industry. See Fight Food Waste CRC: Turning wine industry waste into premium products 180520 […]
Industrial Hemp Decorticator – Revolutionalising the Industry
Recent Projects, Textile IndustryAusteng is proud to be partnering with TCI to manufacture and export to the Canada and the U.S. an industrial hemp decorticator (that separates and processes stalk into hurd and fibre) thereby establishing technology that solves a 10,000 year old challenge in the industry. http://www.textilecomposite.industries/ TCI D8 Decorticator
Formflow – Innovating Metal Forming
Architecture, Tech Enabler, VariousCongratulations to Formflow on it’s continuing journey with its bending technology set to disrupt the construction industry. Austeng is delighted to be a part of the Formflow story. Formflow and Austeng has featured in Engineers Australia magazine ‘Create’ under the title “Mind Over Metal” relating to a new Australian metal forming innovation – see […]
Capricorn Power – Waste Heat Into Electricity
Recent Projects, Sustainability Projects, Tech EnablerAusteng has collaborated with Capricorn Power to run successful trials to support the technical development of what is potentially the world’s most efficient heat to electricity generation system, based on a theoretically proven flow-sheet. The “Barton Engine” turns customers waste heat into low cost electricity thereby reducing emissions. Applications include primary energy sources from renewables […]
Pioneer Commericial Graphene Plant
Recent Projects, Tech EnablerAusteng has collaborated with Imagine Intelligent Materials Pty Ltd (Imagine IM) in building the first commercial graphene plant in Australia. It was officially launched by local MP Sarah Henderson. The pilot plant will produce up to 10 tonnes of graphene per year, built for Imagine IM by Austeng. Graphene is a revolutionary two dimensional atomic […]
Pole Rebutting Truck – Adapt-a-pole
General Projects, Tech EnablerAusteng has been working with Adapt-A-Pole Pty. Ltd. to refine their leading-edge pole rebutting technology. Pole rebutting replaces the in-ground portion of the timber pole with a steel and concrete stub and can be utilised for pole re-instatement, thermal up-grades, new installations and increasing conductor clearance. Advantages of this technology include economics, increased strength and […]
