Voltex Electrical is the manufacturer responsible for the design, build, certification, warranty, and distribution of Voltex products to the Australia and New Zealand markets. We partner with leading global players in the production of switchgear and circuit control products, to sell quality product direct to Australia and New Zealand's electricians. Voltex's factory-to-you model, coupled with savings from having no shopfronts, gives Contractors a good recipe for business success and competitive edge. Established in February 2001, we're achieving rapid, consistent growth by challenging the prevailing status quo in the industry's value propositions, and looking after contractors, the guys who do the work. Well, it seems the electrical trade's massive corporate vested interests aren't that happy about online direct-to-tradie distribution, but we're not sorry. It's been a fun ride helping electricians make the move to buying online. Itβs the m-commerce new reality. It fits well in an accelerating world because mobile commerce is growing faster than anyone ever imagined. And we think it's great.
