As one of Australia’s biggest suppliers of PBS equipment, Vawdrey needs a reliable PBS consultant who will be there for us in all kinds of situations. Whether it’s to help us understand what’s possible with a new and unique design, through to obtaining Design Approval and after-sales services like design changes and certification inspection issues, we’ve found Advantia to offer a great service across the board.

Whilst transport may not be Petuna’s core business, it does make up an important and significant part of our overall cost structure and is an integral link in our supply chain to market.

This insight was the key to unlocking material cost savings as well as operational efficiencies for our business, even up and downstream from the freight contract.

If it goes through to the Design Approval stage, the service is prompt and the quality is high.
