Company History

Founded in South Australia in 1945 by Mr. Norman Key, Key Industries established a reputation as a reliable supplier of quality components to the Australian domestic appliance manufacturers.

Initial expertise in tube drawing, presswork and anodizing was expanded to include full component manufacture of electric defrost heaters suitable for the refrigeration industry.

When Mr Key left Key Industries a new company, Tubing & Electrical Industries Pty. Ltd., trading as Key Tubing & Electrical Industries was formed in 1990 by new owners to carry on the business operated in the tube drawing and electrical defrost heater departments.
