History

It was on a foundation of motivation and vision in which Ampcontrol was first created in 1968 when Ampcontrol’s founders saw an opportunity to develop a business to meet the needs of a growing customer base.

Since its inception, Ampcontrol has led the way in product development and research and regards its success as a testimony to the dedication and enthusiasm of the workforce.

Ampcontrol is one of Australia’s largest privately owned suppliers of electrical and electronic products to the power, energy and mining sectors.
