DECO Australia celebrates two decades of excellence in aluminium innovation
DECO Australia, a family-owned business, proudly marks its twentieth anniversary this year. Since its inception in 2004, DECO has evolved from a humble start-up specialising in aluminium woodgrain finishes to a leading Australian provider of timber-look aluminium building products. Founded by Ross Doonan, whose extensive career in engineering, industrial automation, and product design laid the foundation for DECO, the company has overcome significant challenges to achieve its current stature.
Ross Doonan established DECO in 2004, leveraging his vast experience in the building products sector, including aluminium windows and doors. Initially focused on raising market awareness about their innovative finishing technology, DECO faced a major setback with the global financial crisis in 2007.
"We had to do an enormous amount of work to raise awareness in the market of the availability of this new finishing technology. Then in 2007 the global financial crisis hit and the phones stopped ringing, so we had to batten down the hatches to survive,” explained Ross.
