Established in 2004, our journey commenced with a focus on the manufacturing sector, initially supplying top-tier abrasive garnet.
Our commitment to outstanding customer service is at the core of our operations. We swiftly broadened our offerings to include not only abrasives but also spare parts and machinery, evolving into Performance Waterjet. We quickly became known for setting the benchmark in quality and service, providing unmatched support and ensuring overnight delivery of parts in major Australian cities, alongside swift services to regional areas.
As we established our niche, our dedication to innovation and customer satisfaction propelled us towards new opportunities. Over the years, Performance Waterjet has grown not only in capabilities but also in vision. Understanding the varied needs of our clients, we expanded our expertise beyond offering superior water jet cutters.
This natural evolution led to the creation of Performatec—a blend of 'Performance Manufacturing Technologies.' Performatec marks a new chapter in our journey, representing our transition from specialised waterjet providers to experts in supplying and supporting a diverse range of Cutting & Folding CNC machinery - including Laser Cutters, Press Brakes and Guillotines. Our steadfast commitment to outstanding customer service remains the foundation of our operations, ensuring we consistently meet and surpass our clients' expectations.
Take a look at our company's timeline and significant events.
Performatec began its journey as Performance Cutting Supplies with a focus on supplying Australia's highest quality abrasive garnet.
From the outset, our foundation has been rooted in the core values of delivering exceptional service, quality, and precision. These principles guide our commitment to meeting the detailed needs of the manufacturing sector to this day.
The brand evolved into Performance Waterjet - signifying its singular focus. Innovation at Performance Waterjet took a significant leap forward with the development of the first prototype of the garnet abrasive sludge removal system (ASR). This marked our commitment to not only supplying materials but also solving industry-specific challenges.
Expanding our horizons, we entered the waterjet parts market. This strategic move diversified our offerings and reinforced our position as a comprehensive solutions provider in the manufacturing technology sector.
Our reputation for excellence led to becoming the sole Australian distributor for H2OJET and KMT Waterjet, leading names in waterjet technology. These partnerships were a testament to our growing expertise and market presence.
A landmark year, 2013 saw our first waterjet system sale. This achievement was a clear indication of our expanding capabilities, growing industry networks and the trust our customers placed in us.
We achieved a significant milestone with our first 5 Axis waterjet system sale. This showcased our commitment to providing advanced technology solutions that meet the evolving needs of the manufacturing industry.
Venturing into the food industry, we introduced cutting-edge solutions tailored to meet its unique requirements. This expansion demonstrated our versatility and ability to adapt to different market needs.
During this period, PWJ secured a substantial market share and became the appointed Australian distributor for Flow Waterjet - the world's largest manufacturer of waterjet systems.
This partnership enabled us to provide a more comprehensive array of high-quality solutions. Such a prestigious collaboration significantly bolstered our market standing, catapulting our company into the top three for the volume of machine sales nationally.
In 2024, building on two decades of success and driven by a desire to serve the market better, we launched Performatec. This strategic evolution was born from our commitment to providing a more integrated, comprehensive suite of manufacturing solutions for a wider market.
