shared purpose to leave an enduring impact.

1989

Intex International's early beginnings commenced in 1989 in Melbourne Australia after founder and CEO Simon J Salisbury identified ongoing demand for metal plasterboard angles. “I was a young salesman employed at an architectural company in the mid-1980s and my clients constantly requested perforated angles”, Simon explains. “The larger produces of the day had ceased supply which I could never understand”. In answer to the opportunity, Simon registered the company, taking its name in abbreviation of the original product – internal and external profiles – and commenced supplying a network of retailers throughout Australia.

Intex soon boasted the most comprehensive range of products in the industry.
