ABOUT US
A HISTORY OF INNOVATION
We initially began manufacturing road maintenance equipment back in 2004 when the business was operating under the name Hardiman Bros. Engineering. Since being acquired by Quality Fabrication & Engineering Pty Ltd in 2017, we’ve continued to develop our design and manufacturing solutions around innovation and collaboration with like-minded Australian customers and businesses. We pride ourselves on our design capabilities and combining this with our extensive knowledge of industry requirements. This led us to create the Q-FE Road Ant™ aggregate spreader truck, a unique and patented forward moving aggregate spreader.
The Q-FE Road Ant™ aggregate spreader truck is the most versatile dual control forward-moving aggregate spreader in the Australian market. With innovation as our backbone, we designed, built and now sell this truck to local, state and national entities. The Q-FE Road Ant™ aggregate spreader truck boasts significant safety features and is designed to be used all year round for more than just aggregate spreading during the spray seal season. We remain committed to offering innovative and practical fabrication solutions to the broader infrastructure and farming sectors.
The Q-FE Road Ant™ aggregate spreader truck is the subject of Australian Patent applications including AU2020307144, AU2023203331, International Patent Applications PCT/AU2020/050636, US17622639, EP20830507.8, NZ783336, CA3142502,MYPI2021007675.
