In an industry rife with competition from producers of all shapes and sizes, Tramanco has long enjoyed great success by offering consistently innovative manufacturing solutions to transport operators.
The Brisbane-based company is a family operation which was started in 1975 by Roger Sack and his wife, Judith, who have worked tirelessly to pioneer numerous technologies across a variety of applications.
Tramanco has gradually grown over five decades of quality manufacturing.
Currently boasting 15 staff members and several full-time subcontractors, the business’ weighing systems and on-board scales including CHEK-WAY, KWIK-CHEK and WAY-Bridges are greatly amplified by connections with dealers across Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia.
While having effectively operated Tramanco’s larger operations and product lines for some time, Roger still takes immense pride in the company’s local origins which have greatly informed its quality assurance, attention to detail and customer service.
“Just like its products, Tramanco is also Australian made,” he says. “When dealing with Tramanco, customers are dealing with the one company that designs and makes its own products from the ground up.
“We also write our own software in-house, so customer data is not only unique but it also allows us to remove and reinstall and/or relocate existing systems to new vehicles and locations at any time. Customers are our singular focus and responsibility.”
Roger is looking forward to showcasing the latest improvements to the CHEK-WAY range at this year’s Brisbane Truck show, an event which he says is strongly embedded into the company’s history.
“I was there for the first show in 1968 which was held in Haulmark Trailers’ yard,” he says.
“We then attended in our own right in 1975 and we have been to every one since. I believe in road transport and know how critical it is, and these events show that well.”
In addition to displaying Tramanco’s latest product offering at the Brisbane Truck show this month, Roger is also excited to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary.
Tramanco postponed commemorating the milestone earlier this year so that it could be recognised alongside the company’s loyal customers, all of whom have been integral to the company’s long journey.
“Instead of us having a birthday party and receiving presents from family and friends, we’ve decided to give our customers a present instead in a meaningful way,” he says.
Reflecting on how far Tramanco has come in this time, Roger is grateful to have had a strong customer base by the business’ side every step of the way.
“The last 50 years have been an adventure,” he says. “Tramanco has faced challenges, disappointments and rewards together with its customers, and we would not be here without each and every one of them.”
