Born From Necessity

The origin story of the great australian shelf begins with our family of five living in a relatively small home needing to store all those things that a family accumulates.

Our house had only a small amount of existing storage when we moved in and being very bespoke in its design standard sized bookshelves and cupboards would not have been practical , efficient or cost effective.

Fortunately , I had access to arguably Australia's best commercial joinery's.

The joinery in question was built by my brother over the past 30 years and employs world's best practices in state of the art manufacturing.

Meet The Makers

MDC is a premium high tech manufacturing facility foundered in 1984 by my brother Martin Lausberg.

I joined him shortly after and have worked directly and indirectly for the business ever since.

The factory located in Bayswater follows the European Fully Integrated Manufacturing Cell model  employing the latest technology from Germany and Italy specially adapted to low volume bespoke manufacturing.

The system offers extreme flexibility,  allowing us to design virtually any product to suit a client's needs, knowing that it can be manufactured with great precision and quality at the best possible cost. 

The factory has achieved full ISO 9001 quality management and ISO14001 environmental management certification,  maximising the finish of all its products whilst minimising  the energy and waste required to produce them.

Again this is world's best practice that leaves the imports from Asia far, far behind.
