Some of the most innovative construction projects in South East Queensland and New South Wales have been composed of steel supports imagined and brought to life by Neumann Steel. From Queensland’s first light rail project to cloud-climbing towers that will take your breath away, concrete structures designed to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable rely on the reinforced steel bar, wire mesh, and injection moulded plastic supports created by the Currumbin firm.
Family owned for over 50 years, Neumann Steel is part of the Neumann Group of Companies. Early on, the division became renowned for its pioneering contribution to the nation’s building industry through its introduction to Australia of RIBWIRE cold-rolled deformed wire technology. Among the products still leading the league today are the RIBWIRE footing cage system, RIBMESH® deformed wire fabric, and customised plastic supports for reinforcing steel. Boasting high tensile strength, RIBWIRE technology is now an industry standard.
The foundation of the firm’s success is built on a collaborative spirit that reaches throughout the organisation. It wasn’t enough to supply generic products for use in concrete construction projects; Neumann Steel came to prominence by innovating the critical skeletal components both commercial and residential engineers and builders required to execute their most challenging structural designs. While Neumann’s novel creations are unseen by the general public, without them the art and science of concrete work would suffer, indeed.

SOFT OPENING - CONSUMER CONFIDENCE A KEY FACTOR IN RECOVERY
As states and territories reopened their economies in various phases throughout May and June, it became clear that simply being open is not enough to get firing on all cylinders again. First, there are safety regulations limiting how many patrons a business can serve at a time. Just as important is consumer confidence. If shoppers don’t feel safe visiting a business, they’re not going to, and there’s no forcing them. Some services requiring intimate personal contact have an even harder time with this. Just because someone can get a massage doesn’t mean they’re comfortable with it.

COMING OUT OF OUR CAVES - LIFE IN PUBLIC AS RESTRICTIONS EASE
The pubs reopened to great rejoicing and some free beer as coronavirus restrictions eased across Australia, although unfortunately, it was too late for millions of litres of suds that had to be tipped down the drain. It was strange to be out, but it felt good once you got used to it. Rules vary by state and territory, but over the past several weeks, Aussies have been able to dine out, go to holiday homes, and gather in small groups once more. Lockdown isn’t lockdown anymore, but that doesn’t mean “normal” is back. Here’s where things stand.
