AIMEX Awards Honours Marine Air Flow

We are very proud to be the recipients of Australian Export Marine Group's Junior Exporter of the Year for 2020. 


Despite the onset of COVID and the challenges so many of our friends and family in business have faced during 2020, Marine Air Flow has gone from strength to strength this year. Our export percentage has surpassed 50% for these last few quarters and has included projects for international super yachts, police and military applications and work vessels around the world. 


To have been recognised for this award is incredible to us and we are extremely grateful to AIMEX for proceeding with not just the award ceremony, but the actual awards in these trying times. It feels quite surreal that our small team of 11 has managed to achieve such an amazing level of success, however we know that it is 100% due to our team and the close working relationship we all have. 


We stand with some of the best Australian maritime companies in this awards list and offer our congratulations to each and every one on their success.
