Today, a core section of our business is directed towards the manufacture of innovative protection solutions. While Form Cut Australia is active in multiple industries across the Australian manufacturing sector, it is a particularly strong contributor in the defence sector. Protecting Defence Lives and Assets Form Cut is actively involved in the manufacture of protective transit packaging solutions compliant to the Defence Packaging Standard, DEF(AUST) 1000C and the development and manufacture of Occupant Protection Systems currently integrated into the ADF’s Protected Mobility Vehicle (PMV) Bushmaster fleet.
