Carbitool Customers Speak Out: Why They Choose Australian Manufactured

18.05.2023

Let’s talk about the best part of buying Australian Made this week and the woodworking lovers that inspire Carbitool! This Australian Made Week we wanted to find out why our customers go Aussie; we spoke to two previous #carbitoolmade entrants who produced amazing work for their entry and have a deep passion for their craft.

Nick is a 3rd generation shipwright/boatbuilder, and Sean is the owner of a custom furniture business, The Original Woodshop. Guess what they have in common – They both love using Carbitool!

Nick raves about how durable and reliable Carbitool is in his line of work. As a shipbuilder, he needs tools that can withstand the harsh marine environment, and Carbitool delivers.

Nick: “When it came to selecting router bits for our wooden boat-building process, the decision to choose your products was an easy one. Carbitool’s commitment to delivering top-notch quality, precision, and durability is evident in every tool we use. Additionally, the fact that your products are Australian made aligns with our values of supporting local businesses and fostering a sustainable economy. Your exceptional customer service and ongoing support have further solidified our decision, as we know we can rely on your expertise to help us achieve the best possible results in our craft.”

Sean couldn’t agree more about the Carbitool quality and our wonderful customer service team.

So Sean, what made you choose Carbitool for your entry?

Sean: “Quality! Having used many different brands of router bits in the past I have found Carbitool products always stand out. Not only am I able to choose from an extremely wide variety of cutters but I’m also guaranteed that whatever I choose will be of the highest quality. On top of that, I have always found the team to be really helpful so that I know what I’m getting. All of this together with the satisfaction of supporting a local company makes it a really easy choice.”

The interview also highlights the importance of supporting local manufacturers. By using Australian-made products like Carbitool, we can help our economy and show our national pride!

Nick and Sean, we’d like to know why you shop Australian made:

Nick: “Choosing Australian-made products not only supports our local businesses and economy, but it also guarantees high-quality craftsmanship, innovation, and sustainability. When you shop Australian-made, you’re investing in our country’s future and the livelihoods of countless artisans and manufacturers. By purchasing locally made goods, you’re also reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation, promoting a greener and cleaner environment. In essence, shopping Australian-made means choosing quality, supporting our community, and contributing to a sustainable future for all.”

Sean: “There is a lot of pride in being able to source Australian Made products. Most importantly, for me, is that it supports a local business and therefore Australian jobs. It also goes a long away to building trust in the product as you know it’s manufactured locally and to Australian standards. Added to this is the huge benefit it provides to our economy, which is really important at present.”
