DECO AUSTRALIA (Presenting Partner)
Established in 2004, DECO Australia is the brainchild of CEO and visionary Ross Doonan.

The company moved to a larger factory at Chipping Norton, and created a range of specialised aluminium building products including DecoClad, DecoBatten, DecoSlat and DecoDeck.
