Every construction project is unique. While off-the-shelf fixtures can work for some situations, many projects require tailored solutions that fit exact specifications. This is where custom stainless steel fabrication makes all the difference.
At Marko Stainless, we specialise in custom stainless fabrication for builders, architects, and schools across Australia. From stainless wash troughs and benchtops to custom sinks, splashbacks, and bollards, our locally made products deliver both durability and compliance — perfectly suited to the Australian market.
Why Custom Stainless Fabrication Matters
Builders and architects face challenges that generic products simply can’t solve. A standard-size sink or benchtop might not fit into a unique design, or a school project may require EFSG compliant fixtures built to precise dimensions.
Custom fabrication ensures that every product is:
- Sized correctly to fit the design without compromise
- Compliant with Australian standards and guidelines (EFSG where required)
- Durable enough to withstand heavy use and tough environments
- Finished professionally to match architectural aesthetics
Benefits for Builders
Builders benefit from local stainless fabrication in several ways:
- Faster Turnaround
Working with a local fabricator like Marko Stainless means reduced lead times compared to imported products. This keeps projects on schedule and avoids costly delays. - Tailored Solutions
Whether it’s a custom wash trough for a school or a stainless benchtop for a commercial kitchen, builders get products that fit perfectly on-site. - Reduced Risk
EFSG compliant products and ASSDA accredited fabrication ensure installations pass inspections and meet all requirements. - Local Support
Builders have direct access to our team for technical advice, modifications, or urgent replacements.
Benefits for Architects
Architects also gain significant advantages from custom stainless fabrication:
- Design Flexibility – Stainless steel can be fabricated into almost any shape or configuration, supporting creative and functional designs.
- Seamless Integration – Custom sinks, benches, and splashbacks can be built into broader fitouts for a polished finish.
- Material Consistency – Stainless steel provides a clean, modern look that suits a wide range of architectural styles.
- Confidence in Compliance – For school and government projects, EFSG compliant stainless fixtures are non-negotiable.
Examples of Custom Stainless Fabrication
At Marko Stainless, our custom projects include:
- School wash troughs – Built to EFSG standards and tailored to specific lengths and layouts.
- Commercial benchtops – With integrated sinks, drainers, and splashbacks.
- Custom sinks – For hospitality, laboratories, and healthcare environments.
- Bollards and safety fixtures – Fabricated to site-specific dimensions.
- Aluminium fabrication – Including window hoods and architectural shading systems.
Each project is fabricated in our Newcastle workshop by experienced tradespeople who understand the needs of builders and architects.
Local Fabrication vs Imported Products
Imported stainless products may look cost-effective upfront, but they often come with hidden costs:
- Delayed shipping and supply chain issues
- Uncertainty around compliance with EFSG or Australian standards
- Lower-quality finishes or materials
- Limited ability to customise dimensions or features
By choosing Australian-made stainless steel fabrication, builders and architects gain confidence in quality, compliance, and support.
