BRAESIDE, VIC. — Industry and Advanced Manufacturing Minister, Colin Brooks MP, last week visited the Rinnai factory at Braeside, which is expanding its local operations.
New heating, cooling and hot water technologies are being developed.
The move will secure 110 jobs and many more across the supply chain.
Rinnai employs 442 people across its three Victorian sites.
It’s one of Australia’s biggest heating, cooling and hot water appliance manufacturers, selling locally and overseas.
The expansion will increase the design and manufacturing of energy-efficient appliances, including heat pump technologies for heating, cooling and hot water, helping support Victoria’s transition to clean energy.
Rinnai also took part in the Digital Jobs Program to ensure its workforce could build digital and AI skills.
Victoria has the largest manufacturing workforce in Australia, employing more than 260,000 people.
