MAFI Wins Mayor's Gold Coast Business Innovation Award Oct 2023

Blake, Brad and Kaleena with our Gold Coast Business Award

Two weeks ago, our team's efforts were recognised with the prestigious Mayor’s Innovation Award at the Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards. This recognition is not just an honor but also an affirmation of our relentless pursuit of excellence in marine technology.

Mayor's Innovation Award

The Mayor's Innovation Award is given monthly to local Gold Coast businesses that demonstrate outstanding innovation in their respective fields. It looks beyond mere profitability and market dominance, focusing on how a company is pushing the boundaries of what's possible through creative and innovative thinking. The award:


  • Acknowledges organisations that have demonstrated a novel approach to solving existing problems.
  • Prioritises businesses that contribute positively to the local economy and society.
  • Rewards companies that have a track record of sustainable practices.


As the recent recipients of this honor, Marine Air Flow International is incredibly proud and humbled to be recognised for our contributions to the marine industry.


History of Marine Air Flow International 


Since our inception, we have been on a mission to reshape the marine industry by developing advanced systems that improve marine operating conditions, increase overall safety and support environmental practice.

We believe our journey so far has been nothing short of extraordinary. Since the day we set foot in the marine industry, we have grown from a small company into a leading name in the industry, all while maintaining our commitment to innovation and excellence.


Our growth journey has not been without challenges. After all, innovation often means treading uncharted terrain. But the result of our hard work is a suite of marine products that are not only technologically advanced but also tuned to the real-world needs of our clients.

 

Grateful Recognition 


We are extremely grateful to be the recipients of the Mayor’s Innovation Award. Such recognition is not the work of one, but many.


Every member of the Marine Air Flow team has contributed significantly to our success.


Their dedication, creativity, and hard work have been instrumental in continuously pushing the boundaries of innovation.


We would also like to thank our valued customers, partners and suppliers, for their support and trust for the past 18 years. Our numerous achievements could not be possible without them!


As the team at MAFI continues to move forward, we will continue to live by our motto:

Cool by Design, Green by Intention.
