Vuestamp
mounts were introduced into the Australian market place as an alternative
to wooden strip mounts. Today, the majority of Australian rubber
stamp manufacturers are using Vuestamp mounts.
Although Vuestamp mounts have been manufactured by Astron Industries
since 1968, when these mounts were originally invented, Astron did
not own this product until 1989. During that year Mr. Collin Brand
who owned the marketing and distribution company, Vuestamp International,
decided to retire from the industry and offered the product line
for sale.
As Astron Industries have been manufacturing Vuestamps for some
33 years, it was an attractive opportunity for Astron to include
the Vuestamp range as part of their expansion program.
The acquisition provided Astron with the challenge to not only
further improve the product, but to furnish Australian rubber stamp
manufacturers with an approved level of service previously unknown
by the industry. With the introduction of new storage facilities,
stock handling, packaging and computerised order picking, it was
possible to not only process customer orders more efficiently and
accurately, but in most cases, provide same day turnaround.
As a major supplier to the rubber stamp industry, Astron Industries
has also included in its range of stamp related products, materials
and mounts from other countries as well as those that are Australian
made.
The push for excellence continues, as the international market
is pursued with the same dilligence that made Astron Industries
the largest leading manufacterer of rubber stamp mounts in Australia.
